after i create a text editor with a pop up menu enable.

in the popup menu i have to choice black on white and white on black..

i can check the textbox forecolor and backcolor by using the following code

textbox.forecolor =color.black
textbox.backcolor=color.white

i just wonder can i just change the forecolor and backcolor of selectedText, not the entire textbox


any idea i will greatly appreciate

I haven't tried this but this may work:

textbox1.text = color.white
textbox1.text = color.black

No you cant change the forecolor and backcolor of the selectedText.
and neither this will work
textbox1.text = color.white
textbox1.text = color.black

Is this a windows application and, if so, is this a richtextbox you are using?

J

yup.. it is a simple window application... and just use textbox with multiline enabled.
