Do you know how to concatenate two strings? This is very beginner-level stuff.

Ritchtextbox.text = textbox1.text + textbox2.text

Either & or + will work. If you are getting a line break, then the line break must be in one of the textboxes.

Sure. Just properties like SelStart and SelLength to select the text, then set properties such as SelColor. Note this is just off the top of my head - I may have the names wrong. Do some browsing through the properties, and/or the doco.

There are other ways to select text in a RTB, such as selecting by words, or to the next occurrence of a specified character. Look through the doco, it's a pretty powerful control.
