I'm using OOo Writer 2.3 and have a problem selecting text.
Had it in previous version as well
I cannot drag to select a block of text. I can click in one spot and then
shift-click in another and it works fine.

Drag selecting works fine in other non-OOo applications like WordPad.

Using Toshiba laptop with trackpad also a USB mouse but neither works.
WinXP Pro, status icons in Writer indicate INSRT & STD

ATM, this feature does not exist in OOo.
I've read somewhere that developers are working on it. So probably it will be introduced in one of the coming releases, 2.4 or 3.0.

Kindest Regards,
Cor

Errrm. Nonsense. I use OO on Win XP and selecting a block of text by dragging is perfectly normal. What am I missing here?
