Disable selecting text in a TextBox

Question

I have a textbox with the following (important) properties:

this.license.Multiline = true;
this.license.ReadOnly = true;
this.license.ScrollBars = System.Win

You can use a disabled RichTextBox and reset the color to black afterwards.

RichTextBox rtb = new RichTextBox();
rtb.IsEnabled = false;
rtb.Text = "something";
rtb.SelectAll();
rtb.SelectionColor = Color.Black;
rtb.SelectedText = String.Empty;
