Thanks Mark:

select myChunk was what I needed.
here was my final solution for any others who may be interested

on rawKeyUp keycode
   put word 2 of the selectedChunk into cpos
   put word 2 of the selectedline into cline
   select  char 1 of line cline of field "Values"
   put word 2 of the selectedChunk into bpos
   put cpos - bpos into offs
   put line cline of field "Values" into money
   if money is a number then
        ... here I do my update of the Values field ...
      select  after char offs of line cline of field "Values"
   end if
end rawKeyUp

Any thoughts or comments are appreciated.

Dear Severin,

Here is a simple example:

on foo
 put the selectedChunk into myChunk
 put "bla" after fld "The Field"
 if myChunk  is not empty then select myChunk
end foo

I am trying to figure out how to save the location of the insertion point in a field so that after updating that same field I can leave the cursor where it was originally.

I saw something similar in the "Tale of two Revolutions" session presented by Robert Cailliau in his Currency conversion demo. As he changed the values to convert it updated and left the cursor in the same position.

Thanks for the help.
Severin
