Hey Scott, Here's what you need to do:
Use the asterisk key if you just want to move the playback cursor to a particular position. If you'd like to access the start, End and Length fields, use the slash key (on the numpad). The first press of the slash key will access the Start field. Pressing the slash key a second time moves the focus to the End field. A third press will focus on the Length field. Pressing the decimal key moves between columns of the field like bars/beats or minutes:seconds. So, for example, if you wish to create a selection from bar 3, beat 1 to bar 11, beat 3, you would press the slash key once, type 3 then press the slash key again and type 11, decimal, then 3. Alternatively, if you need to simply select 8 bars from where you are, press slash three times and type 8. Hopefully, that makes sense.
