Please remember to check the manual or online help, before inquiring here. However, I
will take pity on you, since the documentation does seem less than ideal in the areas
of #text and #field members (and what the hell, it's Friday night and I apparently
have no life). ;)
Here is a quote from the (Dir8) online help:

> selected in the text cast member.
>This property can be tested and set.
