RE: My working plugin! Colourer!
It is not recommended, meaning avoid it where possible, but it isn't dangerous if it is doing something simple like positioning a cursor. (also the VB example forms (like the login dialog and about dialog) use this to position the cursor at the end of a text box so we can assume it is OK)

You should use the proper way to do that. Try to avoid sendkeys.
.SelText
.SelStart
.SelLength

=>
Text1.SelStart = Len(Text1.value)
Text1.SelLength = 0

if it gets the job done... who cares!:refuck:

Seriously though, Cookies way is the more reliable of the two but because its only positioning the cursor Sendkeys rarely fails.

edit: I wouldn't use sendkeys for anything else tho. (Damn i edit too much)
