  • It's different to wpf.

    You do it like:

    var selection = reb.Document.Selection;
    selection.StartPosition = 1;
    selection.EndPosition = 2;
    reb.Focus(FocusState.Keyboard);

    Where reb is your richeditbox.

    That's selecting one letter of course.

    For position 0:

                reb.Document.SetText(Windows.UI.Text.TextSetOptions.None, "abcdefghijklmnopqr");
                var selection = reb.Document.Selection;
                selection.StartPosition = 0;
                selection.EndPosition = 0;
                reb.Focus(FocusState.Keyboard);


    Hope that helps.
