How to make text bold...

RN

This is a VB 6.0 question :shock:

I have 2 forms, a command button and a rich text box.

The form contains a button and another contains a rich text box.

How would I code the button to make the RTB text in the other form bold? or italic... and so on...

haha it's been ages since I've done VB 6, i'm more of a .net guy, and a C# guy for that matter.

Try this:
to make it bold:

Private Sub Command1_Click 

Form1.RichTextBox1.SelBold = True

End Sub

to make it italic:

Private Sub Command1_Click 

Form1.RichTextBox1.SelItalic = True

End Sub

and replace true with false to undo bold/italic.

I have a question (while we are on the topic).

How would I go about making a window full screen?

I can't whip out code out of nowhere for that one, but the logic would be:

Maximize the forum (Form1.WindowState = vbMaximized (i think))
Hide the title bar (Set the WindowStyle)[/code]
