How to change richtextbox font/format ?

Du
I want to format the text within my richtextbox. However I have large
amount of text to change, simply using richtextbox.sel ect and format is not
pratical.

How do I change text format using control characters (ie rtf format string)
???

I only need a few formating string; font-weight, font-size, color, and font
face

Thank you!

Hello,

Why do not use the RTF property? You can get/set raw rtf to the
RichText.

Philip.

The documentation for the RichTextBox is sketchy at best. I want to do a very simple task but I cannot find information on this. I am using a RichTextBox as an output window.
