Here is my code. I have tried this with 7,0,35,29 on IE and Firefox. Seems like some event is changing the Selection after I set it. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ var begin:Number; var end:Number; function updateSelection() { begin = Selection.getBeginIndex(); end = Selection.getEndIndex(); } function setFBack() { Selection.setFocus(mytext); Selection.setSelection(begin,end); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:TextArea id="mytext" width="500" height="400" mouseUp="updateSelection()"/> <mx:ComboBox id="cbtest" change="setFBack()" > <mx:dataProvider> <mx:Array> <mx:String>Macromedia Flex</mx:String> <mx:String>Macromedia Dreamweaver</mx:String> <mx:String>Macromedia ColdFusion</mx:String> <mx:String>Macromedia Flash</mx:String> </mx:Array> </mx:dataProvider> </mx:ComboBox> </mx:Application>

I think, it should work. Which version of Flash Player you are testing it in? -abdul ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian McPheeters Sent: Thursday, December 15, 2005 1:27 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] Selection.setSelection Issue I am storing the current selected indexes of my TextArea so when certain events happen on other controls I can setFocus back to the TextArea and set the selectedText back to where it was. When I do this the highlighted text is not the same as the positions I submitted but the indexes seem to get set to -1,-1. Anyone dealt with this before?
