Hi Martin,

Try the SaveFile method of RichTextBox class. It enables you to save the
entire contents of the control to an RTF file that can be used by other
programs such as Microsoft Word and Windows WordPad. Look here for details :

If you are using VB6, use the TextRTF property of the RichTextBox control to
save the contents as an RTF file. From MSDN :
This example saves the entire contents of a RichTextBox control to an .rtf
file. To try this example, put a RichTextBox control and a CommandButton
control on a form. Paste this code into the Click event of the CommandButton
control. Then run the example.

Private Sub Command1_Click ()
Open "mytext.rtf" For Output As 1
Print #1, RichTextBox1.TextRTF
Close 1

End Sub
