Hi MaXxX,

On 15 December 2000 at 14:33:53 +0100 (which was 13:33 where I
live) MaXxX wrote and made these points:

I beg your pardon? Since when were you a software engineer?

Stefan  asked  the question. I have the answer. He will understand it.
You  don't  need  to  -  unless  you *are* intending to become a Win32
programmer,  in which case I will be invoicing you for the tuition fee
<g>.

The  Start  and  End positions are the span of the current marked text
block  within  an edit control window (this is about M$ Win32 API, not
component  libraries). Now, and here's the important bit, End position
can precede Start position - no problem.

Like  I  said *VERY* clearly, the above quote comes from the Micro$oft
MSDN  Win32  API  specification  documentation. The End position value
gives the current caret position. QED.
