Textbox/Rich Textbox

[Getox]

I have a Rich textbox and have some text in it, What im trying to do is when the user selects text and clicks a button it will replace that selected text with something like <tag>{selected text}</tag> How would i do this?

 

 

EDIT--------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok well i got what i wanted after playing around with the code for a while,

 

   Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
       codebox.Copy()
       tmptext.Paste()
       formattext.Text = "<b>" + tmptext.Text + "</b>"
       formattext.Select()
       formattext.Copy()
       codebox.Paste()
       formattext.Clear()
       tmptext.Clear()
   End Sub

 

But if anyone knows a better way, Please do tell me.

This might be an easier way:

 

formattext.SelectedText = "<b>" + tmptext.Text + "</b>"

codebox.SelectedText = "<b>" + codebox.SelectedText + "</b>"
