Changing font/size in a richtextbox using vb6

Don't know why.
Does this tell you anything?

Private Sub cboSize_Click()
    With rtfLoan
        Debug.Print 1, .SelStart, .SelLength, cboSize.Text
        .SelFontSize = cboSize.Text
        .SetFocus
        Debug.Print 2, .SelStart, .SelLength, cboSize.Text
    End With
End Sub

Select allOpen in new window

Can you post a zip file of your project?

Are you aware that you can use a CommonDialog control to change everything about a RichTextbox's font?

   

With MyCommonDialog
        .CancelError = True
        .Flags = cdlCFBoth Or cdlCFApply Or cdlCFEffects
        .ShowFont
        rtbEditor.SelFontName = .FontName
        rtbEditor.SelFontSize = .FontSize
        rtbEditor.SelItalic = .FontItalic
        rtbEditor.SelBold = .FontBold
        rtbEditor.SelUnderline = .FontUnderline
        rtbEditor.SelStrikeThru = .FontStrikethru
        rtbEditor.SelColor = .Color
    End With

Thanks guys but the problem remains.
Yes I know that the CommonDialog control can be used, but is unneeded and have called the one on the users machine in the past to keep my app small.
Zip is included
-Font-Problem.zip

Your Click event is empty! Add the code you posted originally and it will work.

Thanks, i had it in the change event, for future something else to double check
simple fix
