From: Leo on 2 Jul 2010 05:47 Why am I getting this error for Me.ActiveControl.SelStart = InStr(Me.ActiveControl.SelStart, Me.ActiveControl.text, m_FR.FindWhat) - 1? If I replace Me.ActiveControl with the name of a textbox, it works but I am using two textboxes that I switch between depending on weather WordWrap is on or not. -- ClassicVB Users Regroup! comp.lang.basic.visual.misc Free usenet access at http://www.eternal-september.org

At the time of the error, what are the values of all those variables? My bet is that SelStart is 0, which won't work because strings start at position 1, so trying to start at position 0 raises an error.... :FS

Because the app is a specialised text editor with only a menu a common dialog and the textboxes.
