  What have you already tried What problems are you getting
  
  

• phb5000

  Error 10 Operator '&' cannot be applied to operands of type 'System.Drawing.FontStyle' and 'bool' C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Owner\My Documents\mRibbon\Sample\Form1.cs 85 17 Sample
  

  Thats what I get. Something seems to be wrong with this line:

  if (style & FontStyle.Bold == FontStyle.Bold)

  Try this:
  
  

  private void BoldButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {     FontStyle style = this.richTextBox1.Font.Style;     if (style  & FontStyle.Bold == FontStyle.Bold)     {         style &= ~FontStyle.Bold;     }     else     {         style |= FontStyle.Bold;     }     this.richTextBox1.Font = new Font(         this.richTextBox1.Font.Name,         this.richTextBox1.Font.Size,         style); }

  
  
  changing FontStyle.Bold with the style you want.

  Make three buttons and change the following code appropriately for each button

  private void BoldButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
  
       this.richTextBox1.Font = new Font(this.richTextBox1.Font.Name, this.richTextBox1.Font.Size,FontStyle.Bold);
   }

  Something like this:

  public class MyForm : Form {  private readonly int[] FontSizes = new int[] { 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24 };    public void SomeFunction()  {     for (int i = 0; i < FontSizes.Length; i++)   {        comboBox2.Items.Add(FontSizes[ i ]);   }  }    private void comboBox2_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)  {      this.richTextBox1.Font = new Font(FontFamily.Families[comboBox1.SelectedIndex], FontSize[comboBox2.SelectedIndex]);  } }

  Add more font sizes to the FontSizes array as you like.

  Add the following code to the combobox index change event.
  
  private void comboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
  this.richTextBox1.Font = new Font(FontFamily.Families[this.comboBox1.SelectedIndex],this.richTextBox1.Font.Size);
  }

  Use the following code to get all the Font Names in the combo box
  
  for (int i = 0; i < FontFamily.Families.Length; i++)
  {
  this.comboBox1.Items.Add(FontFamily.Families[ i ].Name.ToString());
  }

  Got it. Now one last q: How do I code the Bold, Italic and Underlined buttons
  
  Matt
  
  

• gholam ali

  Thanks but when I add bold italic underlined etc...... it only allows one style at a time. What if I want both Italic and Bold at the same time

  The easiest solution to this is to use the build in FontDialog that comes with VS2005.

  Drag a FontDialog from your toolbar (Under the Common Dialogs grouping) onto your form. And add an event handler to a button or menu option on your form that contains the following code...

  if (fontDialog1.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
  {
  yourRichTextBox.Font = fontPicker.Font;
  }

  That code you guys mentioned changes the font. Now, how can I create a combobox, populate it with font sizes and when a user clicks a font size, it changes the font size in the richtextbox
