Re: RichTextBox issue

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

David,
There is not much to post, I drop the RTB onto a form, set the
"EnableAutoDragDrop" to true. I added a few lines to write to a file.
Interestingly, if you open the created myfile.rtf with wordpad, it also
shows no file names BUT if you create the myfile.rtf with wordpad, drag
files into it, then open with the following code, the file names are shown!
Dumbfounded,
Bob

Public Class Form1
Private Sub ReadButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles ReadButton.Click
Try
RichTextBox1.LoadFile("c:\myfile.rtf")
Catch ex As Exception
Beep()
End Try
End Sub

Private Sub SaveButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles SaveButton.Click
Try
RichTextBox1.SaveFile("c:\myfile.rtf")
Catch ex As Exception
Beep()
End Try
End Sub
End Class

Can you please post your code? It sounds like you are not calling your
object
correctly.

If one drops a file, say a text file onto a richtextbox, the file name

not appear, only the file type.
Is there a setting I'm missing or is it just a richtextbox thing?

thanks
