playing with Strings

[Ehsan Sadeghi]

Hello
Lets say i have a string like
String myString ="This is a test";
and say i have an array of wave files that holds the wave form of each
substring in mySting .
say it's
myStringWaveForm[];

i'm going to show myString inside a paintbox so i use something like
g.DrawString(...)

my question is how can i change the colour of each substring, i can draw
each substrin with myString.Substring() , while i'm using PlaySound() to
read it(substring)..

and something else how should i store all my wave file insude one file or at
least store all the wave form one one string inside one file?
Regards

When you call g.DrawString, use a brush of the suitable colour. Strings
themselves don't have any presentation information associated with
them.

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking for here, but
BinaryWriter/BinaryReader may well help you.

Hello
I mean for example i like to show the entire text which is " This is a test"
and then using the wave files which i have first read "This" from the string
and at the same time change its colour ( colour of "This") to "red" while
the rest of the text is in black.

Sure - so you call g.DrawString with "This" with a red brush, then
g.DrawString with " is a test" with a black brush.

Admittedly you might find it easier with a RichTextBox.
