I am trying things along the following lines, with no luck: TFont* boldFont = new TFont(); boldFont->Style << fsBold; JvRichEdit->AddFormatText("This should be bold\n",boldFont); TFont* normFont = new TFont(); JvRichEdit->AddFormatText("This should be normal\n",normFont); JvRichEdit->AddFormatText("\nnow This should be bold",TFontStyles(fsBold)); JvRichEdit->AddFormatText("\nnow This should be normal",TFontStyles()); RichEdit->Font->Style = Errors->Font->Style << fsBold; RichEdit->DefAttributes->Style << fsBold; RichEdit->Lines->Add("This should be bold\n"); RichEdit->Font->Style = Errors->Font->Style >> fsBold; RichEdit->DefAttributes->Style >> fsBold; RichEdit->Lines->Add("This should be normal\n"); Could someone please give me some quick pointers for either control? I'm having a hard time finding documentation or examples. I'm using BDS 2006 C++ Builder Personality.
