I tried to find a workaround. I actually have a variable that contains a large number of lines, and each line contains the same number of items. I thought I could use itemoffset straight (instead of lineoffset) and then compute the # of the line with a simple calculation. But things aren't so simple... Here's what I mean :
let's say with have a fld with 2 lines, each line containing 5 items : a,b,c,d,e f,g,h,i,j
if you type "select item 5 of line 1 of fld 1" in the msg box, "e" will be selected. "select item 1 of line 2 of fld 1" will select "f". But if you type "select item 5 of fld 1" then "e" and return and "f" will be selected.
JB:
If your design can accommodate an extra empty item at the end of each line:
a,b,c,d,e, f,g,h,i,j,
I think it would work...even for item = <return>f. --
