        Dim syntaxEdit1 = New Alternet.Editor.SyntaxEdit(Me.components)
        syntaxEdit1.LoadFile("myfile.txt")

        If syntaxEdit1.Find("my text") Then
            System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(String.Format("Found text length: {0}", syntaxEdit1.SearchLen))
        End If
    End Sub
End Class
