Is there a way to insert text into a multi-row textbox where the cursor
position is at in the multi-row textbox?

Just wondering..I was told I could use the SelectedText property however I
get this error:

'SelectedText' is not a member of 'System.Web.UI. WebControls.Tex tBox'.
Thanks!

The TextBox is a server-side control, and text selection information
isn't posted to the web server. You'd have to work something out with
client-side scripting.

How do I insert a char into the textfield on the keypress event of another textfield? I have two textboxes, "text1" and "text2". Important: "text1" is outside the table. "text2" is inside the table cell. On the keydown/keypress/keyup event of "text1", the character which I entered in the "text1" must display in the textfield "text2".

I don't know whether anyone can help, but I have an odd problem. I have a PSP (Spyce) script that makes many calls to populate a database. They all work without any problem except for one statement.

I have the opportunity to rescue a project that uses a mouse to sense the relative position of a machine. The hardware is built...just needs to be programmed. Stop snickering!!! I didn't do it...I just gotta fix it. I need to make some calculations on the measurements and VB6 is my language. Yes, the system mouse will corrupt the measurement, but it's an auditing function and that's acceptable.
