>>Assuming your form's scalemode set to pixels this could help you as a starter :

with _Screen.Activeform.ActiveControl
>> lnWidth = txtwidth(substr(.Text,1,.selstart+1), .FontName, .FontSize)*Fontmetric(6,.FontName, .FontSize)
>> lnPosX = objtoclient(_Screen.Activeform.ActiveControl,2) + lnWidth
>> lnPosY = objtoclient(_Screen.Activeform.ActiveControl,1) + .height

Right Ed only 4 controls have it. It's a starter :) For others I think using T,L,H,W would be sufficient.
