I have some source code that looks like this: TESetSelect(0, 300, TE_Edit_Text); TEDelete(TE_Edit_Text); TEUpdate(TE_Rect_Edit_Text, TE_Edit_Text); TESetText(@st[1], length(st), TE_Edit_Text); This usually works fine. But, if I select a little part of the text before this code gets executed, The text gets screwed up when it gets pumped into the area. For instance, if I try to pump in the a string, and I select some of the original text in the area first, the first 4 characters are invisible. What am I doing wrong?

Let me see if I understand what you are trying to do: >TESetSelect(0, 300, TE_Edit_Text); select chars 0-300 >TEDelete(TE_Edit_Text); delete selected chars >TESetText(@st[1], length(st), TE_Edit_Text); set the te to hold the data in st. What you might want to try is: TESetSelect(0, 300, TE_Edit_Text); TEDelete(TE_Edit_Text); TESetText(@st[1], length(st), TE_Edit_Text); TECalText( TE_Edit_Text); EraseRect(TE_Rect_Edit_Text); TEUpdate(TE_Rect_Edit_Text, TE_Edit_Text); That might solve your problem. -- ___________________________________________________________ Matthew Mora | my Mac Matt_Mora@sri.com SRI International | my unix mxmora@unix.sri.com ___________________________________________________________
