@mba: [q]I understand that users might get back after searching. Here we find
only the
"replace all" case but why should we stop there? Wouldn't it be useful to have
the same functionality for "replace" or "find"?[/q]

No. You can assume that if a user clicks Find, he/she wants the cursor to move
to the found text, if any. In the case of a single replace, maybe too.[/q]

[q]But how should several consecutive search/replace calls be handled? Should 
we go
back one step only? Or should we go back immediately to the start?[/q]

When a user clicks Replace all, the program executes the Replace all in the
background, so the changes aren't shown as the replacing takes place - that will
make the replacing a lot faster too and the cursor location won't change either.
If you need a cursor to perform each replace, then use a dummy cursor. You
should only redraw the text area when it gets focus again (sorry for the Delphi
jargon). ;) Hope this helps.
