Yes! the unicodetext of the selection is the answer. Forget the
selectedText.
the unicodetext of the selectedChunk works as well.
Thank you, Mark!

Hi Slava,
You can try this:
set the unicodetext of fld YourSelection to the unicodetext of the
selection
or
set the unicodetext of fld YourSelection to the unicodetext of the
selectedChunk

Briefly, here is the problem:
put the selectedText of field BilingualText of this card into
tCurrSelection
--the field may hold, for example, the two words Боб Bob, which is
the
string assigned to the unicodeText prop. of the field
set the unicodeText of field YourSelection of this card to
tCurrSelection
--alternatively:
set the unicodeText of field YourSelection of this card to
uniEncode(tCurrSelection, UTF8)
Neither alternative works for bilingual text. One version works only
for
English, the other works only for Russian. In each case, the other
language
is unreadable in field YourSelection.
