JCF,

Thanks for your reply. The MouseMove() event doesn't help us because we're looking for the position of the text cursor - not the mouse cursor. Although its possible for both positions to be the same - this is not a frequent occurence because the mouse cursor does not automatically track the text cursor.

Any other ideas?

Thanks!
Malcolm
