The 'selrtf' property

Implemented under Windows only

Character vector

Valid for: RichEdit

Internally, Windows RichEdit controls hold information about the contents and appearance of text in Rich Text Format (RTF). The selrtf property allows you to retrieve or change the currently-selected text as RTF directly, including the text contents, font face, size, style and color.

If you want just the raw text without any formatting information, use the seltext property instead. If you want to retrieve or change the entire contents of the control in RTF format, use the rtf property.
