Thanks Holger, I had seen your simple XSLT based input box but not your others, the ASV6 one is great, I can not wait for ASV6 to be in production release (whenever that happens!?!!??!) so I can implement it in my app, until then I will look into using your ASV3 version I think, I had a look on your site but found no links to those textboxes...is that on purpose? I had seen Jan's before, but had not tried to integrate it, perhaps I will make a more concerted effort as it seems to have the functionality I need with respect to hightlighting text and keyboard interaction (similar to your ASV6 text box), the reason I did not persue it last time I saw it is because I could not get my head around the complexities of how he handles his classes, modules prototypes, handles exceptions etc... it all seemed very complicated, but as I said, perhaps I just need to nut it out.
