Description

Specifies the position of the first selected character in the text.

Read SelStart to determine the position of the first selected character, where 0 indicates the first character. If there is no selected text, SelStart indicates the position of the cursor. Set SelStart to remove the current selection and position the cursor just before the indicated character.

To select a particular range of the text, first set SelStart to position the cursor, and then set SelLength to extend the selection.
