THIS IS AN OUTLINE KTHX VVV
!!!!!!!!!!!PLEASE IGNORE THIS TROLL POST!!!!!!!!!!!

that code is wrong i swear...

Easy is Easy

at most a few lines of code.

The most effective way (easier, you can use a separate form, however, add a Textbox to your tool bar and a button that says find)

Code:

Declare a few things as public ( so you can use them later for replace and find next

'Textbox1 = Find Textbox
'Textbox2 = document

[php]
Public StartPosistion As Integer
Public TargetText As String
[/php]

Create your own function (sub)

[php]
Private Sub Find(ByVal start As Integer)
Dim position As Integer

position = InStr(start, textbox2.Text.ToLower, textbox1.Text.ToLower)
If position > 0 Then
TargetText = position
textbox2.SelectionStart = TargetText - 1
textbox2SelectionLength = Len(TargetText) - (Len(TargetText) - Len(TargetText))

Else
MsgBox("What the ....&*%$")
TargetText = ""
End If
End Sub
[/php]

Now you can search using

[php]
Find(1)
targettext = textbox1.text
[/php]

Well you have noone to blame but yourself, it's like the boy who cried wolf. In every single thread you post troll code, such as this

[php]
IF.GUID.NEEDED = YUS THEN MAKE NEW GUID FOR PROTEKSHUN
[/php]

You can't blame people for automatically assuming that you're posting more troll code when you post something like this:

[php]

If ctrl f pressed {
ask for word
}

if word found{
highlight it
}

else
{
no found
}
[/php]

I mean, sure it's an outline but anyone with half a brain can figure out a basic logical argument for how a search works, getting the actual method itself is what he was asking for

.

Well here's my troll post to add to the collection.
Yous banned soon Jdeezy !! D:
