Hi Joe

if I understand correctly your question, look at the ..Cursor and
..CursorEnd properties of your edit field

Best regards

Also, once you know the position of the cursor inside the text, to get a
x/y position, you can use the functions to get the width and height of a
text with the text being in that case the text UP TO the position of the
cursor...

Of course, these 2 answers are based on the TEXT cursor. If you want to
know where the used CLICKED inside a text, use the mouseinfoxy or
mouseposX functions

Best regards
