In both cases, not trivially with native VFP controls; there's an API which can resolve a POINT structure relative to an hWnd (a Form has an hWnd, as do most ActiveX controls, but you'd need to compute the location of the edit box frame and convert the POINT in the Form to a POINT in the edit box frame.
You'd probably find it easier using an instance of the RTF ActiveX control.
