Carlos and Terry,
You are correct. When I reset the focus back to the editfield with
the word being selected, the highlighting displayed correctly.
Thank you very much.

The problem is that selecting an editfield word
using RB code shows up differently than
setting the same word by double-clicking.
On Windows to highlight a word via code, we need FIRST to set the
focus to the EditField.
A test example I made with an editfield and the following code on a
pushbutton works fine:
EditField1.Text = "one two three"
EditField1.SetFocus()
EditField1.SelStart = 0
EditField1.SelLength = 3
I don't know if on MAC you must also set the focus to the editfield
first.
