On Windows to highlight a word via code, we need FIRST to set the focus to the EditField. A test example I made with an editfield and the following code on a pushbutton works fine: EditField1.Text = "one two three" EditField1.SetFocus() EditField1.SelStart = 0 EditField1.SelLength = 3 I don't know if on MAC you must also set the focus to the editfield first.
