Syntax Highlighting in Rich TextBox Control

Jeremy,

If you could provide some code I could probably help you as I've writen a syntax highlighting control.
Generally I've found if your having problems its the RTF formatting that not correct. A good source for this is; O'Reilly "RTF Pocket Guide.
Another trick I found is that if you do the following in you text box it helps write/debug your RTF;

            if (Text.StartsWith(@"{\rtf1"))
                wRichTextBox1.Rtf = Text;
            else
                wRichTextBox1.Text = Text;

This will allow you to toggle the text within the RichTextBox to display either in RTF or just text.

Hope this helps
Mike
