Hi Craig

By the way, the RTF control is way slower than MODIFY FILE. It works quite well except for the speed. Any ideas on improving the performance? As for the row and column positions, I added a pair of labels and put code in the .SelChange to update them...

*** ActiveX Control Event ***
THIS.PARENT.lblRow.Caption = STR(INT(THIS.SelStart/881))
THIS.PARENT.lblRow.Refresh()
THIS.PARENT.lblColumn.Caption = STR(MOD(THIS.SelStart,881))
THIS.PARENT.lblColumn.Refresh()

Thanks again.

>I don't know if the cursor would disappear, but yes, you could have a really wide line. I've created apps that do exactly that.
