YEAH, TEXTCHANGED is what I should use! This does what I need: ---------------------------------- command doit put the selectedtext of me end doit on textChanged send "doit" to me in 10 end textChanged ------------------------------------ Thank you very much! :-) However "selectionchanged" should also be triggered, not?
