Hi all,
In my database I've replaced my usual text boxes with RTB controls so I can apply extra formatting.
I'm creating a set of buttons or a menu item to control Bullets, Bold, Italics etc.
The problem I'm having is determining which control has focus.
Ie. in order for my buttons to work I need to be able to reference the active control on the form to apply the formatting to.
If the user has selected text in the Comments field & clicks on the Bold button then I need to say
rtbComments.SelBold = True
Only 2 fields will be available for formatting, rtbComments & rtbDescription. So I just need to be able to distinguish whether either of these had focus before the Bold button was clicked.
Any help appreciated,
Regards,
Patrick.
