I've spent the last hour searching the internet for a simple list of the
shortcut keys recognized by the Windows Forms RichTextBox and
came up empty handed.

I did see where someone mentioned that he looked at the lists
for all the DLL's but he didn't say where he found them.

Is there such a list anywhere?



Also, I came across the RichTextBox.RichTextShortCutsEnabled property.
Which says:
This property is not relevant for this class

Not sure why it is mentioned if it is not relevant.

Do you know?

Might it be useful to me anyway?



Also came across a mention of WPF RichTextBox - is that for net programming
only?


Thanks for any information?
 
Well, it says that after it says this:

This API supports the .NET Framework infrastructure and is not intended to
be used directly from your code.

That's really the important line to look at.

As for the shortcuts, it's in the MSDN documentation which is installed
with VS.NET 2008. The url for the local content is:

ms-help://MS.VSCC.v90/MS.MSDNQTR.v90.en/shellcc/platform/commctls/richedit/richeditcontrols/usingricheditcontrols.htm#rich_edit_shortcut_keys

I've attached it here as well in case you don't have it. Scroll towards
the bottom.

I can't seem to find the URL online for this. The MSDN documentation
online doesn't seem to be updated with what is distributed in VS.NET 2008.
The document that ^should^ have it is this:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb787877(VS.85).aspx

But it obviously hasn't been updated yet.
 
You sent me to Using Rich Edit Control
Right above it is About Rich Edit Control
Which contains the list

Thanks
