This is untested and I havent tried it, I am guessing somewhere you can dispatch a Fake mouseDown/Click event on the UITextField which theortically should place a cursor. ------ Sherif Abdou http://VadexFX.com http://Sherifabdou.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Brandon Krakowsky To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2008 8:51 PM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Placing cursor inside UITextField

You mean I have to test to see if the UITextField itself has initialized?
