Hi there, Is there a way to find out what the current active document is? For example, I'm using one syntax editor and multiple documents for different tabs. Since only one tab can be opened at one time, i need to find out what the current syntaxeditor.document is. I've tried:

dim editor as new actiprosoftware.syntaxeditor.syntaxeditor
dim doc1_txt as String

If editor.document is doc_P1 = true then

doc1_txt = doc_P1.text

End if

while setting above that editor.document= doc_P1 in which doc_p1 is a syntaxeditor document.
But that doesn't work... is there a property that i can use for this?

thanks for any help.

Hi Michelle,

The SyntaxEditor.Document property is the right way to get/set the Document that SyntaxEditor is editing. So I think your code should work fine unless there is something else going on on your end that is wrong.

If you are just trying to find the text of the current document you can also do something like:
Dim text As String = editor.Document.Text
