This is a pretty old post, but there are a couple of things that CJ should know about.

I get the same results. Fails to highlight with the sample project "MDITextEditor". The control is embedded in a view.

With the control in a dialog such as the "SyntaxEditOnDialog" project found in this forum, it does work. If you do either of these things:

1. Load a file. Syntax will highlight. The reason loading a file works is that RefreshColors() is called.
2. Add <YourSyntaxCtrlName>.RefreshColors(); OR ".Invalidate()" to the dialog init method. You can then type and syntax will highlight when a coded word is completed.

Unfortunately, the same "RefreshColors()" fix does not seem to work in a view.
