question
|
is this right, what i am doing ??
dim textval as integer
textval = txtedit.selstart - 1
if textval < -1 then (i am put some logic over here)
suppose the txtedit.selstart = 0
then textval = 0 - 1
then it should get -1, but it is never getting that -1
why ??
can someone please tell me, what is wrong ??

Actually if then if you had -0.5, it would show up. Try <= -1 for the best result.
The verdict is no longer unanimous...:O
