Hi,
You first have to compute the character index where you need to place
the cursor, then create a range with zero length and location =
character index,
Then get the editor (NSText object) for the text field, you can get
one by calling NSWindow's
"- (NSText *)fieldEditor:(BOOL)createWhenNeededforObject:(id)anObject"
and passing your NSTextField object as anObject
Then eventually call "- (void)setSelectedRange:(NSRange)aRange" on the
text object by passing the range you computed in the first step.
Hope this helps,
Chaitanya

How can I programmatically position the cursor to an arbitrary
position with a NSTextField?
For example, placing a cursor within the parentheses '('...')' of a
phone number?

Ric.
