[solved] RichMemo and CHARFORMAT2 - highlight text

[rick2691]

Nicole,

if you hold your cursor over CHARFORMAT2 it will show a pop-up note: type CHARFORMAT2 = CHARFORMAT2A = _charformat2a =
record; C:\lazarus\fpc\3.2.0\source\packages\winunits-base\src\richedit.pp(953,6)

RichEdit.pp is the RichEdit unit.

So if you don't have RichEdit and/or RichMemoUtils in your USES clause ... they need to be there.

Thank you so much for the clarification!
It works for me in the meanwhile and I am so happy to have this unit. I added it into my private library.

and btw:
