Advanced TMemo functionality

Question

Good day, Tell me, is it possible to implement a component TMemo following functionality:

1. Entering text in TMemo, begin the search for the first character you type;
2. If a match is found, we conclude that the choice in a list whose elements are displayed as links, then click on the found text that stands out in TMemo.
3. Click on the link right - go to the found text similar to item 2

Whether it is possible to implement a standard TMemo, or to look for a component?

Answer 1

Delphi is known for the ease you can extend the existing components and transform them in custom ones.

If you never developed a component before the topic might seem a bit confusing so i recomend you first document your self on the topic by consulting this guide : http://delphi.about.com/od/vclusing/a/customvcldev.htm

After you done some coding come back and ask us what you tried and didn't work.

Hope it helps
