Hi WhiteSky, i want to highlight the word during text tranfer from file to rich edit box,i have no options of using another dialog for finding the text.. can u please tell me how to find the word and highlight it.. Regards, Vinay Charan.
Hi Vinay Try Using FindText, Here is a sample code,
// The pointer to my rich edit control. CRichEditCtrl* pmyRichEditCtrl; // The string to search for. LPCTSTR lpszmyString; // Set the selection to be the first occurrence of the // string lpszmyString, if it is found. FINDTEXTEX ft; ft.chrg.cpMin = 0; ft.chrg.cpMax = -1; ft.lpstrText = (LPSTR) lpszmyString; long n = pmyRichEditCtrl->FindText(FR_MATCHCASE|FR_WHOLEWORD, &ft); if (n != -1) pmyRichEditCtrl->SetSel(ft.chrgText);Appu..
