Can you give use a clue about the component with the edit text? A small code example will help.

Its like user is editing long text in edittext at many places he wants to start new line. I want to give a button to click which will insert line break character at the cursor position.

You can use something like this:

Sub btnInsertLF_Click
    Private txt1, txt2 As String
    txt1 = txt.SubString2(0, edtText.SelectionStart)
    txt2 = txt.SubString(edtText.SelectionStart)
    txt = txt1 & CRLF & txt2
    edtText.Text = txt
    Log(edtText.SelectionStart)
End Sub
