Sorry but I don't use MFC.
I must use api,that's it.
I tried :
newcaretpos=oldcaretpos+tm.AveCharWidth+1
when an ascii char was pressed.
It works for 'a' for ex but for 's' and some other chars the new position is much to far from the old one and I don't now why.

Well, MFC is a wrapper for API so there possibly may be some API function for GetTextExtent(). Try MSDN. Of course it is a direct context member function so I'm not sure, never used API 
. Hopefully someone else will see this post, its a fairly simple question. You could also try the VC++ forum.
