Is there a way to trap key presses in an edittext?

   ' new = actual text
End Sub

So why is the question in the first post about key presses?

If you are using B4A v7.3 then you can call EditText.SetSelection to select part of the text.

For further discussion please start a new thread and make sure to better explain the question.

Because I want to make an autocomplete that behaves like what I created for b4ppc

Send an image of what you created with b4ppc so it's clearer about what you mean.
Change title to Thread because your request is different from EditText but from AutoCompleteEditText.

Explain what you want to select: Are you in the selection the portion of the suggested text? All the text?
