Having a play with the above.
No (promised) updates yet which is poor as this is one of the 'flagship' items of v22 but there we are, this is PCS.

That said there are quite a lot of things that can already be achieved with the functions available.

One thing that I cannot find is how to make the document active....

Creating a new document, setting the font and font size is fine.
The document opens and the cursors sits at the beginning blinking as expected.
However the document is not actually active - no text can be entered until a mouse click is applied to the control.

Same applies with cut&paste.
Manually - Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V - works fine.
By code it is possible to paste into or at the end of a sentence and place the cursor at the end of the sentence.
Same problem - Cursor is blinking but the document itself does not, it would seem, have focus.

Anyone playing with this come up with a solution?

Hi Derek

did you simply try to send a mouse click to the control with the sendkey function?

Best regards

I hadn't - now I have and it works perfectly.

Guess I had got bogged down with all the 'DocFragment' stuff etc.
Help on this and other 'Docxxx' functions is not great - viewed in debug they do create quite complex structures to hold all the variables.

Anyway onward and upward - you are the man.
