1. Adding text to a richedit control
Does anyone know how to add text onto the end of a richedit control?
I'm going to have a richedit with a lot of formatted stuff in it then I
want to add a small piece of text to the end, I'd really rather not
retrieve all the text, add the new stuff on the end, put it back into
the control then format it all as this will be really slow :) It's for
a chat log...
Also, anyone know what message you need to send to a richedit to make
it scroll to the bottom, and also how to find out where it is
currently scrolled to?
Thanks :)

2. Re: Adding text to a richedit control
In my chat thingy I used a EM_EXSETSEL to set the selected text to the end,
then EM_REPLACESEL to place it in the control. EM_GETLINECOUNT can be used
before and after to determine how much to scroll the window (or where to
scroll it to).
I used EM_LINESCROLL to scroll the text, EM_SETCHARFORMAT and
EM_SETPARAFORMAT to control it's appearance.
