Hi there!
I have a rich text box and in the formatting toolbar (that sticks to its upper border) I have a ComboBox that displays the standard Font sizes. Just like it is in MS Word or Excel.
The user after selecting text will click a size. How do I achieve this?
I know how to handle this when the selected text is written in a single font. I put the following code in the SelectedIndexChanged event of the combobox.
private void comboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Font font=new Font(richTextBox1.SelectionFont.FontFamily.ToString(),Convert.ToInt16 (comboBox1.Text),richTextBox1.SelectionFont.Style);
richTextBox1.SelectionFont = font;
}
This works fine when the Selected text consists of only one "rtb.SelectionFont.FontFamily". However, when the user selects a piece of text that consists of more than two font types the rtb.SelectionFont is returning null. And the catch block is catching an ugly NullReferenceException everytime.
I cannot use a font dialogue box or anything that would force me change the UI.
Any suggestion would help.
Best Regards,
Sid

You need HWND of the control you want to retrieve text from. Then you need to send WM_GetText message using SendMessage function. I think you have enough keywords now to search on google.

I am trying to find smt but i think i dont know exactly how to use that i wrote smt like that
public const int WM_GETTEXT = 0X00D;
[DllImport("USER32.DLL", CharSet = CharSet.Auto)]
public static extern int SendMessage(int hWnd, uint msg, int wparam, StringBuilder text);
[DllImport("User32.dll")]
public static extern int FindWindow(String lpClassName, String lpWindowName);
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
private static extern int FindWindowEx(int parentHandle, int childAfter, string className, string windowTitle);
hwnd = FindWindow(null, "Adobe Creative Suite 2 by cvs/SSG");
StringBuilder titletext = new StringBuilder(256);
StringBuilder artisttext = new StringBuilder(256);
StringBuilder timetext = new StringBuilder(256);
StringBuilder totaltimetext = new StringBuilder(256);
hwnd2 = FindWindowEx(hwnd, 0, "obj_BUTTON", "Activation");
hwnd3 = FindWindowEx(hwnd2, 0, "obj_EDIT", null);
MessageBox.Show( SendMessage(hwnd3, WM_GETTEXT, 256, 256).ToString());
i can handle the hwnd that i need in parent then child form. hwnd3 is the textbox's hwnd after that time how can i read what is written in that
thanks for everything i have...

WM_GETTEXT? Really? How did you deduce that this person is working in native code and not .NET?

Intuition. As you can see from his/her last reply I was correct.

Did you try searching to see what is already available? There is at least query builder here on codeproject. There is EasyQuery.NET[^] for those you are lazy to do a simple search and prefer to pay.
