Ok I'll try to explain this the best I can. I am using visual studios
net. I have a C Sharp form with a RichTextEditBox. In the text field i
tell it to say www.google.com. So the code goes something like this
richTextBox1.SelectedText = "www.google.com";
Ok when I do that the text is underlined and if the user clicks on the
text this event will be called
private void richTextBox1_LinkClicked(object sender,
System.Windows.Forms.LinkClickedEventArgs e)
Which is perfect. The only problem is I do not want the text to say
google.com or any other address for that matter. Now in word I can
create files that that have the extension rtf. I also found code that
will load a rtf into my RichTextBox. It will load colors, text, fonts,
and hyperlinks.
Now using word I can take any letters or string of letters and
instruct the computer to bring up any web address I like whenever the
letters are clicked. regardless of what the letters say.
The problem is when I do that and try to load this rtf document into
my RichTextBox it does not work. The text I selected is underlined and
appears to be a link but when I click the text nothing happens. The
LinkClicked event is supposed to run. I think that maybe by clicking
the text another event is called.

I am talking about in the RichTextBox in the text field. In C Sharp I
run code similar to this :
richTextBox1.SelectedText = "www.google.com";

Yeah I have been able to do that with word. It works exactly how I
want it to in word. Unfortunatly when I load the "working" rtf
document onto my form. When I load the document into my RichTextBox
The link does not act the same. The text is underlined and appears to
be a link. But when the text www.google.com is clicked this event runs
private void richTextBox1_LinkClicked(object sender,
System.Windows.Forms.LinkClickedEventArgs e)
when I load the rtf document and the hyperlink is clicked this event
does not run. I have only been able to get that event to run when the
text is that of a web address. Maybe another event is called, if i
could figure out which event gets called that would work.

I am probably going to have to do that. Of course the coding and the
ensuing errors sounds high.
Thanks
