Hi friends !

I have to design a ownerdrawn CustomControl. Basically no problem for the drawing algo. But How can I get the Caret shown there at a specific place where I want to have him. In the C++ times I would simple have derived from editbox and painted it myself, But how this is done in C# Looking at the TextBox events there are no Paint events available.

Thx dglienna !
Have done a short look into that. Seems to be a great reference. I'll have to do a try on this. :wave:
