sellength to end

[ingrid]

I want to select text in a textbox from a given position to the end. I found the sellength property but I can only select text from the beginning to the given position.

Is it possible to select from a given position to the end?

Are you wanting to select the data into a variable? If so, use the Mid() function.

Or are you just wanting to select the data as if the cursor was over some of the characters in a textbox?

This really is an extension - as opposed to a new topic - of this thread.

I want to the select the data as if the cursor was over it.

Like this:

based on your initial question of finding and selecting from the g in ingrid.

    Dim i As Integer
    i = InStr(1, Me.Text0, "g")
    
    Me.Text0.SelStart = i - 1
    Me.Text0.SelLength = Len(Me.Text0)

This works.
ThankS!
