    Hello. I'm trying to make an IDE for a seperate programming language called DarkBASIC. Everything is going perfectly fine, but I'm trying to be able to show line numbers in the editor, which is a RichTextBox control. So is there a way to show the line numbers in a RichTextBox control? And if there isn't, is there an alternative?

    Not built-in AFAIK, but you can certainly add line numbers to the control's text. Mark

        It's VB code - It makes C[...] programmers' eyes bleed. ;P

                You could use the code text editor from SharpDevelop. It's packaged to be used separately. http://wiki.sharpdevelop.net/Using%20the%20texteditor.ashx[^] I used it for editing HTML in this[^] article, if you want to see an example.

                    The SharpDevelop code text editor didn't work for me. The other article worked well, although the line numbers would only update when I changed the text, instead of scrolling.

                        That is unrelated to the question. How can I delete it?
