Just now in Google I found the EM_SETTARGETDEVICE message, no matches in EUforum search, so fingers crossed (not tried). See: http://www.vba-programmer.com/Snippets/Code_VB/Word_Wrap_Toggle_for_RichTextBox.html An interesting link I found for the problems I face in Edita is: http://aeditor.rubyforge.org/softwrap.html Certainly clarifies a few ideas, for instance I would display line 75 column 190 in the status bar when the screen shows cursor on line-75-part-2-column-10, and hence say downarrow would not be line+1 but col+80(ish) sometimes. Plus wordwrap [show additional virtual lines] would need to be bolted into the existing fold [hide selected real lines] mechanism, which I knew already, but I now realise that a fold [clash] on a wordwrapped line is no matter - folds disable wordwrap completely [and if you edit a fold line, you'll get what you get]. Still a huge commitment I cannot undertake at this time though. Regards, Pete
