There's a diffrence in how to place an insertion point cursor (the blinking
I-beam) in a text member vs. a field member. selStart and selEnd work only
in field memebr. In a text member, use member(X).selection = [2, 2] (as an
example) to place the cursor between character 2 and 3 in the editable box.
(To find out where the insertion point is, use the same syntax, x =
member(X).selection[1].) The advantage of using a text member is better
control over the appearance of the text.
