OK Tim
Unfortunately i can't get the highlighting to work my directory is in
column mode if that makes a difference but as far as everything you
instructed me to do is concerned i followed to the letter. when it
works for you does it announce if things are highlighted or not?
thanks

Hi Keith:
KB: How do i highlight spesific items in a folder? i can do all or
single files but can't select at random
TK: To highlight non-contiguous items (nice big word eh!), follow
these instructions:
• Navigate to the first item you wish selected.
• Turn Cursor Tracking off by pressing VO-shift-f3.
• Navigate to the next item you wish highlighted then press VO-cmd-
space. You can press the same key combination again if you wish to
unhighlight the item.
• Once you have all the items highlighted, then press cmd-c to copy.
• don't forget to turn Cursor Tracking back on with VO-shift-f3.
This works in Tables and such as well.
