}

tell me if im doing nething wrong ;)
thx in advance

I have found that you can scroll around to any part as long as you know the charector you wish to scroll about. Here is how to make a selection:

Quote:

---

An application sends an EM_SETSEL message to select a range of characters in an edit control.

EM_SETSEL
wParam = (WPARAM) (INT) nStart; // starting position
lParam = (LPARAM) (INT) nEnd; // ending position


Parameters

nStart

Value of wParam. Specifies the starting character position of the selection.

nEnd

Specifies the ending character position of the selection.

Return Values

This message does not return a value.

What you do is make both the starting and ending position the same and it will scroll the caret and screen to that position. This is what I have always used in the past.
