I am having some problems with creating a "Find" dialog for my text editor in Visual Studio 2017. I want this dialog to take input from the user, then scan a RichTextBox control, and highlight matches. The user might press "Find Next" if there are more than one match. Basically what I am looking for is a Notepad "Find" function. I did a lot of research but none fixed my problem. Thanks! P.S.I would like some basic code to accomplish this function.
