How do you show line numbers in a RichTextBox control?

[Sinani201]

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.

not big fan of VB[] either, at least, I am not afraid of playing with it though! :-\

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?
