Hi Will,

Would there be a way to do this without
itteratting the control selecting and setting as i go

The day that happens will be the day that us programmers are no longer
needed (The day that you would just think what you want to do, and the
computer would do it).

If you want to change the font on everyother line, then you will have to
change the font for everyother line. Depending on what you really want to
do, this could have a simple solution or a very hard solution.

What is it exactly that you want to do?

I have a window that has a CRichEditCtrl in it, my text is in here and

there

are font bars etc so that you can change the size and font of text.

All i have to do to change this text is the following

CHARFORMAT2 cf;

//imagine i do some setting of cf here.

my_cntrl.SetSel(0,-1);

my_cntrl.SetSelectionCharFormat(cf);

and this will change the font of my text etc,

My question is, is there another way to do this, without displaying
anything? I almost want to say programmatically, so say i could have
everyother line a different font. Would there be a way to do this without
itteratting the control selecting and setting as i go

Many thanks

Will
