How do I move the cursor from one position to another position in the TrichviewEdit?

I am trying to move my cursor to position 80 on the line, but am unable to find out how to do this.

How do you want to define the position where to move the caret?

Yes, I believe so

I just asked where do you want to move the caret.

You said, for example, to the position 80 on the line. It is possible, but not very trivial. But there may be simpler methods, I can try to help if you tell me what do you want to implement.

I am simply wanting to move my caret position to position 80 on the line. I am not seeing any option to "MoveCaret" to a position in TRichView.

Thanks for the help

What if there are less than 80 characters on the current line?

I am populating the box. I have one bit of information that I know can be a maximum of 50 characters, and a minimum of 5 characters, or in between. After I write this bit of information, I want to move to position 80 to write my second bit of information.

Have you considered using tabstops?

No I did not. However I look at the help, and I really do not understand the help for the tab info section.

Would I have to design a specific paragraph style with a tab stop, then apply it to the whole line?

If I understand you, you want to arrange data in columns.
Yes, the best way to do it is either tabs or tables.
