The problem has been fixed by DTS. Thank the engineer for the help. No more "out of bounds" 29mar26

Thanks Rick Maddy I had the filepath in the wrong place. 31 warnings disappeared. YEA Charlie

The only process I could find is to place the cursor at text.startIndex. Then touch screen IOS cut, copy, paste. Then use the app cursor navigation arrows to position the cursor. It works. Charlie

Tried a different sequence and got "encoding not is scope" content = try String (contentsOfFile: encoding: utf16: filepath) Charlie

Tried this and got "encoding not is scope" content = try String (self.init contentsOfFile:encoding: .utf8) Thanks Quinn

Could be reverse engineering.
