Richtextbox: How can I indent the second line upto the end of the paragraph
Your example doesn't make it very clear, since both sets of paragraphs look
exactly the same, but if you mean what I think you mean then you should have
a look at the SelHangingIndent property of the Rich Text Box. For example:
RichTextBox1.SelHangingIndent = 100
RichTextBox1.LoadFile "c:\windows\desktop\mystuff.txt"
This will set the "hanging indent" for all paragraphs in the RichTextBox,
but you can set each paragraph independently (to different settings, if you
wish) by positioning the cursor somewhere inside a paragraph and then using
the SelHangingIndent (or some other similar) property to set the style for
that particular paragraph.
By the way, the values (100 in the above example) are in whatever units have
been set for the container of the RichTextBox (usually your Form). This
defaults to Twips, and so the above code sets the{*filter*} indent to 100
Twips. If, however, you set the Form's ScaleMode to some other setting
(vbPixels, for example) then you should use those values instead.
