Question re: GUIMLTextEdit control and cursor problem

In my MLTextEdit controls, the cursor is always one position behind the text entered by the user. The control still works ok except backspacing is sometimes problematic. Visually, of course, the cursor is not in the right place and it is distracting when entering text.

Anyone know of a fix?

I searched the Torque forums and only found a mention of the problem in a thread unrelated to my specific problem. I found no obvious fixes.

Thanks in advance.
