Thanks Sergey.

I thought that was the case but when I SET STEP ON in the KeyPress event of the textbox, that value is always 0.

I may just have to trap the Click event and the arrow keys in order to know the user's position when they actually hit the BackSpace key.

You don't happen to know of an easier way do you?

>>I have a textbox in which the user builds a comma separated list of names. When the user deletes one character of one of the names, I want to delete the whole name. I'm kind of trying to emulate the effect you get in Outlook when you delete attachments from a plain text email. Outlook does not allow you to delete any part of the attachment name.
