bah.... ok thanks. I think that there should be at least a wrapper func called getCursorPosition or something. Also, to insert text where the cursor is, it looks like I'm going to have to do something like this: sequence text atom pos text = getText(myctrl) pos = getIndex(myctrl) setText(myctrl, text[1..pos] & "hello there" & text[pos+1..length(text)]) In my mind, when setSelectedText was called, if there wasn't anything selected it would insert text at the cursor position. That seems to be more logical, rather than do nothing. ===================================================== .______<-------------------\__ / _____<--------------------__|=== ||_ <-------------------/ \__| Mr Trick >From: Derek Parnell <ddparnell at bigpond.com> >Reply-To: EUforum at topica.com >To: EUforum <EUforum at topica.com> >Subject: Re: [win32] cursor >Date: Thu, 07 Nov 2002 11:37:49 +1100 > > >Its not documented as such but the getIndex() call will return the cursor >location from an edit or >richedit box.
