I can see the problem this may present here. What if I wanted to know
which word of the selected line was selected? The selectedchunk only
returns the character position. The selected line returns the line(s)
selected. I would have to go through some convoluted math to figure
out how many characters or words were in the lines prior to my
selection, then subtract that from whatever the selectedChunk returns
to get where I want to go.
What would be better is if selectedChunk returned a detailed result like
word 2 to 3 of line 15 of field "myField"
or if we could pass an arguement to selectedChunk for the kind of
object we were looking for.
All speculation tho.

There is also the selectedLine which will return the line your cursor

The SelectedChunk. I found it by looking in the dictionary under "the
selection". It's one of the things listed under "See Also:".

How do you find out where the current "insertion point" in an
editable field is?
I mean, if you have:
This is line 1
This is line 2
This is line 3
in an editable field, if the user has placed the caret after the 'n'
in line 2 and then hit return for example, how do you know where in
the field you are? (either in terms of chars, or char n of line n,
or
whatever).
This is probably really simple, but I can't for the life of me
figure
it out!
Best,
Mark
