TextBox help...

[blinkdude]

i was wondering if you can go multi colors in 1 line like in a "RTB" like this is my code

Code Select Expand


Text1.Text = Text1.Text & "<" & Username & "> " & TextSend.Text & vbCrLf

is there a way i can make that line multi colors?

Ditch the textbox and go with a RichTextBox.  It's far easier, nearly every bnet bot for chatting uses it, so there's lots of example code.

yes i have made the move!
ok but how would i go about this "<username>"teal and me chat text white

Code Select Expand


rtbAdd "<" & Username & "> " & TextSend.Text & vbNewLine, vbTeal


hey what are the color codes for white / red / yellow or off hand you know

Code Select Expand


Public Const vbBage = &H80000000
Public Const vbGrey = &H808080
Public Const vbTeal = &HFFFF00
Public Const vbDGreen = &H8000&

That's beige*

Also, these are the constants I have, they are in C++, but you should be able to translate them to VB fairly easily...

Code Select Expand


#define BLACK 0x00000000
#define BLUE 0x00FF0000
#define RED 0x000000FF
#define GREEN 0x0000FF00
#define WHITE 0x00FFFFFF
#define YELLOW 0x0000FFFF
#define LIGHTBLUE 0x00FFFF00
#define GRAY 0x00757575
#define DARKGREEN 0x00217721
