If you mean the mouse pointer, then I suppose the MouseMove event will tell you that. Or you might be able to use an API call to get it at any time.

People tend to use the word "cursor" for a lot of different things.

...and if you meant the position of the text cursor in a text box, you can use the property TextBox.SelStar t

Also, you might find useful TextBox.SelLeng th - how many characters are selected (highlit) in the text box.

In a mouse event such as Mousedown, up or move, X returns the arrow's distance from the left, and Y it's distance from the top.
HTH.

What VB? VB6, VBA, or VB.NET.
In VB.NET, Control.MousePo sition gives you the screen position and you can subtract the form's Left & Top property. And, as others have said, in the form click event, you can cast EventArgs into MouseEventArgs and use the X & Y properties. HTH --Sam

I don't think there's much point speculating any further until we hear back from vdraceil.
