Rich Text Box highlight

[JasonDBurke]

Hi,
My question is a GUI question.
I am trying to mirror a little functionality found in editing programs like MS Word. I want to be able to highlight some text in a Rich Text Box and then click on a combo box a select a different font type and have the text switch to that font while the text is still highlighted.

My problem is: after i highlight the rich text and click a combo box , the highlight on the rich text is disappearing - when focus is shifted from Rich Text to Combo box. All I want to do i prevent the highlight from disappearing so that the user can see what text he/she is trying to change.

Thanks,
Jason

HideSelection property is the answer. Needs to be set to false.
