MeasureCharacterRange

Hi all,

I have a UserControl which behaves like a TextBox. Whith
MeasureCharacterRanges I can get the region of every character, but I
didn't find a way to get the index in the string from a pixelpoint:

example:

String: ABCDEF
calculated with MeasureCharacterRanges: E has the x-Position: 107

but what can I do if I have the 107 and want to get the Index of E?

The only way I see is to get the rectangle of each character and
compare it with 107.

I hope I miss something and someone else knows a better solution.

Thanks in advance
Andy
