Thanks all for your help, I have finally done the trick.
Now, I am stuck on another issue.
By doing the coding on relevant buttons I’m able to change the font
face and style of the textbox’s text,
But by this, everything inside the textbox is changing, instead of
selected text.
I got to know by a bit of searching that it can easily be done by
taking rich textboxes, but I have been instructed by superiors to use
simple textboxes only.
Any idea how can i assure to apply the changes in font for only the
selected text instead of entire textbox?
Many thanks.
Sameer!
