private void richTextBox1_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e)
{
if(e.KeyCode == Keys.B && e.Modifiers == Keys.Control)
{
this.richTextBox1.SelectionFont = new Font("Microsoft Sans Serif", 8, FontStyle.Bold);
}
}

You could also maintain the font and do it like this: if (e.KeyCode == Keys.B && e.Control) { richTextBox1.SelectionFont = new Font( richTextBox1.SelectionFont, richTextBox1.SelectionFont.Style ^ FontStyle.Bold ); e.Handled = true; }

Everything is fine but when i press Ctrl + I the cursor moves one tab ahead, Why does this happen? is Ctrl + I any pre-defined short cut for richtextbox. i am working in VS 2005. Thanks, Pramod

For example, if you want to open Directory c:\ then use file:\\c:\ or if you want to open d:\temp then use file:\\d:\temp
