Replace selected text only

[JESTAR]

How would I use Replace on a textbox to replace only the text that is selected with a new string, instead of Replace replacing every occurence of the string.

Nevermind. SelText.

*feels stupid*

Use mid statement to split the string at the selstart point. Then, add your new string, and then add the rest of the string, after selstart+sellenght.

text1.text=mid(text1.text, 1, text1.selstart-1) & _
myNewStringToAdd & _
mid(text1.text, text1.selstart + text1.sellength)

Where text1 is the textbox, and myNewStringToAdd is the bit you want to put into the string instead of the highlighted text.
