Jim,

Thank you for your reply. And thank you Justok, for your confirmation.

Your suggestion certainly was going to be an option for me and I guess that I will have to do it now. You see the problem was that I have another form with just one Editbox on it (for a memo) and the SelStart value DIDN'T reset to zero when it lost focus to the push button!
