Find and highlight text in other app using regular expresion
#33
Hi Gintaras,
I have been trying to combine the two functions from the forum: RichEditHighlight and EditControlSelectReplace.

It works except for a few things:

1) It will select and apply the format bold/italic/underline to either the original text or to the replaced text but it will only apply the colors to the original text not if there is a replacement. I think it is because the bold/italic/underline apply to the spot where the highlight occurred and will transfer to the next text swapped in however for the color it has to have the exact start and stop characters. I tried to therefore make the replace first and then do the CHARRANGE step after (see version 2 but that really doesn't work!)

Also even in when works (version 1), it seems you can only colorize one time. Subsequent attempts on the same text to apply different color/background don't work. It doesn't seem like the way of turning off a formatting attribute, by setting the appropriate value in dwMask but do not set the corresponding value in dwEffects works for colors - went to black-on-black. I believe this was true of the RichEditHighlight function that I based this on.

Thanks for any thoughts or help in this!

ps. I know that my handling of the combination of the flags and format codes couldn't have been handled in one combination 1|2|4|8|16|32|64|128, etc but it seemed like when I combined them, it would always take the last formatting option, instead of combining them so I split and did sel case structure, but I know this isn't most optimal/elegant.

Anyways thanks so much again!!!
