Hi All, I have two TRichEdits - reSentence and rePhraseSentence. The program spends a lot of time figuring out how to highlight reSentence with different fonts to help the user identify which words have which significance.
Next, I want to copy the contents of reSentence to rePhraseSentence intact, with all the same highlight fonts in all the same places so the program doesn't have to spend a lot of time doing the exact same highlighting to rePhraseSentence that it already did to reSentence. I tried: reSentence.CopyToclipboard; rePhraseSentence.PasteFromClipboard; but that didn't do it. So I tried: rePhraseSentence.Lines := reSentence.Lines; and rePhraseSentence.Text := reSentence.Text; but of course that didn't do it either - the highlighted font information didn't get copied from reSentence to rePhraseSentence. I tried: rePhraseSentence.Assign(reSentence); but that caused a runtime exception stating that I can't assign a TRichEdit to a TRichEdit. Since rePhraseSentence is placed on panel rePhraseLeft, I tried: paPhrasesLeft.rePhraseSentence := reSentence; but that generated a compiler error. Can anyone figure out how to move the contents of one RichEdit to another RichEdit while preserving the highlighted font selections as well as the text? Help appreciated, Rich _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list -> [email protected] http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/delphi
