I think properties .SelStart and .SelLength (for the EditBox) can help you to find out where the cursor was.

>Hi Folks -
>I have an interesting one:
>We would like to take a memo, display it in an edit box. Now when the user types into the edit box, give them the ability to activate what we call a picklist, right mouse click activates a list from which the user can select from. Once the user selects from the picklist, the value needs to be inserted into the memo field, exactly where the cursor was prior to activating the picklist.

>The activation of the picklist no-problem, getting the selected value from the picklist no problem, the problem is placing the picklist value in the memo field exactly where the user activated the picklist. The only idea I can come up with is to insert a hidden character just befor activating the list, then parsing the memo field replacing the hidden character the picklist value. The main issue is if the insert is in the middle of a sentence and not at the end.
