Hi Liam.

OK. You're wrong ;-) Tetbox.SelStart is the current cursor position. If you have to save it, just add a custom property to your textbox called nLastPosition and initialize it to 0. Then, in the control's Valid, save .SelStart to .nLastPosition. In the GotFocus, just put something like this:

Textbox::GotFocus()
This.SelStart = This.nLastPosition
lnLen = LEN( TRANSORM( This.Value ) ) - This.SelStart
IF lnLen > 0
   This.SelLength = lnLen
ENDIF
NODEFAULT

This code is untested and off the top of my head, so you will need to test to see if it does what you require.
