[Park]

In the multiple line textbox, is it possible that every sentences shows
different color ?
For example,
test sentence 1 : red
test sentence 2 : blue
....

No you cannot do it. You have to use another control.
Then you can do it.

I believe that would be RichTextBox.

You might post some example code for Park.

Add a RichTextBox and a Button to a form.

Put this code in...

private void richTextBox1_TextChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
string[] lines = richTextBox1.Lines;
int pos = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < lines.Length; i++)
{
int lineLength = lines[i].Length;
richTextBox1.SelectionStart = pos;
richTextBox1.SelectionLength = lineLength;
pos += lineLength + 1;
if ((i % 2) == 0)
richTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Red;
else
richTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Blue;
}
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
sb.Append("line: 1 - red" + Environment.NewLine + "line: 2 - blue" +
Environment.NewLine);
richTextBox1.Text = sb.ToString();
}

.... wire up the events.
