>>I;m curious if there is any way to re-open the SCX file when the file is already open. Also I wanted to know if you have selected text in a method during design time, is there a way to determine what text you have selected. I know how to get the currently selected object your working on, but I can't see a way to get a hold of the selected text.

No.
I am modifying a form ( design time ) and there are times when it would be nice if I could re-open (use .scx Again ) the form. Perhaps there are ways around the need to do this, depending on what I am looking to do, but I was curious if any one has been able to do this.

>2.What means 'selected text' in design time. Do you reset SelText property in code?

I've heard that in Delphi they have what is called hyperlinks to other methods. Wouldn't it be nice if while you were modifying a method in a form you could just click on the method name and it would jump to the other method. I have something that is working, but I am forced to use a macro that issues a Ctrl-c than runs a program that looks at _CLIPTEXT.
