It is not at all clear what it is that you are trying to do, what you have tried or where you are stuck.

You mean automatically it should start writing with a marker wherever you put the cursor? So you want to create a tool probably, am I right?

Since you are talking about the cursor (rather than the caret) I assume you mean a Console application.
Try the Console.SetCursorPosition[^] method, or the CursorLeft and CursorTop properties:

C#

static void Main(string[] args)
    {
    Console.WriteLine("Hello: Member 10044307306");
    Console.CursorLeft = 7;
    Console.CursorTop--;
    Console.ReadLine();
    }

No, I work with Windows Forms,not Console application.
I'll tell you what I mean exactly,I want to write a text in textbox that is not in my form,a textbox in other windows or even my web browser.
How to that?

Then the only practical way is to use SendKeys:
