        Sleep?? It's better to make use a Timer if at all he needs to automate it.

          You can't go Sleeping all over the place. The application will not be responsive and repaint itself if its Sleeping instead of running a message pump. 9/10 Sleep calls I see shouldn't be there. Steve

            But you will not get the expected result if you write it in OnPaint(). You need a timer to get the result. - NS -

              You want to do it through GDI or have you got the text in some text or label control. Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them. ;-) _AnShUmAn_

                  Tried this one for you hehe it works,(If you actually mean a simpler one like this :-D) Declare Globals: CString cs="sruti"; clickCount=0; //m_TextOut -> CEdit onToMoveLeft() { cs =" "+cs; clickCount++; m_TextOut.SetWindowText(cs); } onToMoveRight() { cs=cs.Right(clickCount); clickCount--; m_TextOut.SetWindowText(cs); } Now it simulates a movement., Is this you want?:~

                    I am just showing her example how to move text!, thought timer is one of good concept but there are concept too.. even some people doesn't prefer timer when it come to accuracy.
