Index remains on 0(zero) in richtextbox

[Dot Net Dev]

Hi, I am creating query editor as in sql server. I have to use blue color for reserved words and black for others. I have inserted the color table in "RTF" of richtextbox , but the modifications in the "RTF" cause the index of richtextbox remains at zero. Please tell me the reason of this. Thanks, Sonia

Index? What index of RichTextBox?? Your question doesn't make any sense.

Dave I think what is meant by index is the index of a thing in the table or perhaps the index of paragraph etc being enumerated in the RTF.

Cursor remains on the start of richtextbox.

Adding text to the RTB, or any TextBox for that matter, does not move the Caret. The property that controls the Caret position is SelectionStart. If you want to add text and move the Caret at the same time, use AppendText, or just set the SelectionStart property yourself.
