/ hpcvlx:comp.windows.ms / kipnis@janus.Berkeley.EDU (Gary Kipnis) / 5:48 pm Nov 30, 1989 / Hi, I am working on a program that constantly moves caret around the screen, unfortunately when I use SetCaretPos() to advance caret to a new postion most of the time the caret doesn't get erased from the previous position any suggestions would be appreciated Thank you, gary ---------- You need to call HideCaret before moving it, then call ShowCaret afterwards. [I wasn't directly involved with it, but a word processing programming team found that this was required to avoid the "caret turds," as they called them.] --Bill Turner (bturner@hp-pcd.hp.com) HP Corvallis Information Systems
