Stephen, I have never Unchecked Autoselect for any field and never had a problem, until today. Did the Uncheck and the right mouse button did nothing except let a field be used. Leave it Autocheck checked and the right mouse pops up the BLUE lines around the text. I have never seen that before. I apparently do not use a right mouse button much. Thanks.

This has worked for years. Lately we are finding people claiming that text turns BLUE then disappears when they start to type. I had never seen that action and could not duplicate it until today when I clicked into a field via the mouse. It turned AQUA like it should, but then the 4 line text section turned BLUE exactly like Windows Cut/Paste commands and disappeared when I hit any key leaving an empty field. I tried several more times in one of the backup copies and could not make the BLUE response happen again even in the exact same form/field. Every form uses a property command to determine if it is in Admin mode or not, but that simply controls the Win XP Close/Max/Min buttons and DISABLECLOSEACTION I do not want to lose the actual CUT/PASTE activity because it is used all the time to dup information, but I want the user to control when it happens. How do I control this apparent random CUT/PASTE setup? Or what might be a cause? An obvious simple solution is just move the cursor, but for several employees that is apparently too much thinking process. Ron White's philosophy of what you cannot fix comes immediately to mind. Am I missing something very easy? v91 64 with latest updates.
