>I had trouble trying to use interactive change in a textbox once, where the effect was to reverse what the user typed into the box. you typed 'BOS' and it showed up 'SOB' was really kinda cute!

Hehe, but thats a different problem, that has to do with changing the Value property moving the cursor to the front of the Textbox. You can work around it by saving and restoring SelStart. Surprisingly, that code works fine in an edit box. *shrug*
