Returns or sets a value that determines if a paragraph in the RichTextBox control containing the current selection or insertion point has the bullet style. Not available at design time.

object.SelBullet [= value]

The SelBullet property syntax has these parts:

Part Description
object An object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.
Value An integer or constant that determines the bullet style of the paragraph(s), as described in Settings.

Settings

The settings for value are:

Setting Description
Null Neither. The selection spans more than one paragraph and contains a mixture of bullet and non-bullet styles.
True The paragraphs in the selection have the bullet style.

Remarks

Use the SelBullet property to build a list of bulleted items in a RichTextBox control.

To distinguish between the values of Null and False when reading this property at run time, use the IsNull function with the If...Then...Else statement. For example:

If IsNull(RichTextBox1.SelBullet) = True Then
   ' Code to run when selection is mixed.
ElseIf RichTextBox1.SelBullet = False Then
   ' Code to run when selection doesn't have bullet style.
...
End If
