May be you have some action or menu item with one of these shortcuts that

overrides default behavior?

Menu shortcut was indeed the reason for different behavior of Ctrl+V and

Shift+Insert.

But I still believe that if:

a) I define RichViewEdit.Options:=[rvoAutoCopyText];

b) In OnPaste event handler I have DoDefault := True;

that the text should be pasted as the text and not as RTF or RVF when using

the Ctrl+V and Shift+Insert (This is the way I understand the help for Paste

procedure, but I could be wrong, of course).

>I do not understand what do you want to achieve. Returning to the original

position after executing Replace All command or something different?

Just an example - in sentence:

"quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog's back" I have caret at beginning

of 'lazy'. If I now do search/replace of word 'brown' with 'red', my caret

is just before letter 'z' of 'lazy' (i.e. caret is at the same byte offset

from beginning of sentence, but it is not at same position of the text).

I cant figure out does the RichView offers an way to 'anchor' the caret to

the text (bookmark, jumppoint ..)?

Excuse me, please for awkward explanation before, but to express oneself

in non native language can be the bitch .. Hope this time around it is better
