  Hi,
  I'm wrong about my statement. The vb6 textbox control doesn't have an event that fires when the user selects text in the textbox. This is a feature in the RichTextBox control.
  It would be nice for the textbox control to have the same RichTextBox1_SelectionChanged event.
  
  Cheers,
  Frank

  for the textbox, there is a textchanged event. Simply select the textbox in question in designer view, view its properties, select the events icon (lightning symbol) and scroll down to the "TextChanged" event, double click it to create the event

  this event will fire everytime the text has been changed in some way in the textbox

  does this help is this what you are after

  but if the user alter the selected text via mouse selection.

  May be you should also handle the mouse click event.

  a textbox is enough. I added two eventhandlers to the code, KeyUp and MouseUp. This gives me the possibilty to check whether or not the user selected some text in the textbox.
