You might have to "lock messages" or deal with the traversal or focusOut, or other events that could occur just after the openfield message is sent. Perhaps you needed to "pass openfield" so that Rev will know that it happened. Interface interactivity is not my area, so I am just guessing here. The 'send' technique in effect says "let all other things happen, then select text" Jim Ault Las Vegas _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
