  CHARRANGE chrg;
  LPCSTR    lpstrText;
  CHARRANGE chrgText;
} FINDTEXTEXA;

Members

chrg

Type: CHARRANGE

The range of characters to search. To search forward in the entire control, set cpMin to 0 and cpMax to -1.

Remarks

Note

The richedit.h header defines FINDTEXTEX as an alias that automatically selects the ANSI or Unicode version of this function based on the definition of the UNICODE preprocessor constant. Mixing usage of the encoding-neutral alias with code that is not encoding-neutral can lead to mismatches that result in compilation or runtime errors. For more information, see Conventions for Function Prototypes.
