I am using gvim 7.3 on Windows 7. I need to select the four x's in the 
following sample text. I positioned the cursor on the upper left 'x', then 
typed 'v' to enter visual mode. So far so good, but when I move the cursor to 
the lower right 'x' I lose the selection. How do I designate the selection area 
in visual mode?


When I use the arrows keys on Windows 7, I lose the selection.   However, hjkl 
works just fine.  I've never really bothered to figure out why, I just use it 
as a little reminder to keep my hand away from the arrow keys. :D


HTH,Dan

  I tried hjkl, but they lose the selection the same as the arrow keys.
