CTRL-SHIFT-Left is to select word by word going backwards, if no forward selection has already been performed. You'll find the same behavior in Notepad and MS Word, and many other editors. > 2) Selection: Ctrl-Shift-Left should unselect word by word. Now, I see what you mean when being in the headers. If a person selected the text going towards the right, then yes CTRL-Shift-Left should unselect word by word while going towards the left. But, it doesn't just move the cursor at the beginning of the edit box, but selects from the first character up to where the cursor is currently located. The same observation can be made when selecting towards the left and then using CTRL-Shift-Right to unselect while going towards the right, it selects from the current cursor position all the way to the end of the text, and the cursor positions itself at the end. > Again, things work properly in the message text. I can confirm this. What happens is that for the edit boxes in the header has to be specifically programmed for those behaviors. > I'd put this down as an annoying long-time bug that needs to be fixed.

If it's documented there, RITLabs can't say nobody told them. Just verify, as well as you can, that nobody already posted this bug before. -- Best regards, Daniel Rail Senior Software Developer ACCRA Group Inc. (www.accra.ca) ACCRA Med Software Inc.
