CRichEditCtrl and Caret positioning...

Environment: VC 4.1 on NT 3.51

I changed a CEdit control to a CRichEditCtrl and now all my SetSel
calls to move my caret position dont seem to do anything. Am I missing
something here?

TIA

CEdit::SetSel() is primarely used to select a range of characters in an edit 
control. By default it also scrolls the caret into view but it can be set not 
to.
CRichEditCtrl::SetSel() does the selection but does not move the caret into 
view. Luckily, it places it at the end of the selection indicated by the greater 
character index.

See the Class Library Reference entries on the above two topics.

Both CEdit and CRichEditCtrl classes have member functions like LineFromChar(), 
GetLineCount() and LineScroll() which can be used to scroll the line and the 
character after which the caret is placed into view.

I hope this helps you.
