I was using the RichTextBox property called SelectionStart to move
through the text one character at a time to check to see if one
character is different from the next. The problem is this property is
very slow and takes alot of processing time. Is there a more efficient
method i could use. I used also the select method but it is also slow so
i need something different.....any ideas
