RichTextBox.SelectAll Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Selects the entire contents in the RichTextBox.

Namespace:  System.Windows.Controls
Assembly:  System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub SelectAll
public void SelectAll()

Remarks

The selection highlight is invisible if the RichTextBox does not have focus. So, if you want to implement a "Select All" button in a toolbar it is good practice to call RichTextBox.Focus after SelectAll.
