Get the Location of the caret?

[Edneeis]

How can I get the location (x,y) of the caret (not the cursor) in a textbox? Any Ideas?

I am trying to show a "floating" listbox like the intellsense does in a textbox and I can't figure a good way to determine height. I could measure it with the length of the text but if some of the text is not in the visible window then it gets too low.

Have no idea if this will help you out:

I'll keep looking.

I think in the User32.lib there is a GetCaretPos API call you can make.

Well I had seen the article that the first link is an addendum to, but that one is better because it mentions a GetPositionFromCharIndex function in .NET but its only for RichTextBoxes. So I switched it to a RichTextBox and it works good, thanks. The other one was only for Windows CE.

Thanks a lot I thought this was going to be harder than that.
