Thanks everyone. I figured out I can send a "shift-F10" to call up a menu in Meditech that allows me to choose "Select All" and then choose "Cut." Seems very different from any Meditech field I've ever used, but at least it works. Oddly enough, that "shift-F10" doesn't allow me to select all in other fields I just tried.
Thanks again!

Tom From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, January 07, 2014 1:35 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [talkbws] Meditech Text Field Hi, I'm having an issue that probably has a simple fix, but I haven't figured it out yet. I'm trying to update Patient Instructions in the Enter/Edit Appointment Type Dictionary in Meditech Scheduling. This is a free text field that can be quite long. Normally, when I tab into a Meditech field, the data currently there is highlighted, and I can just send data that overwrites it (or I can send the backspace key to delete it). However, in this field, the data isn't highlighted. Is there a command I can send to highlight the data of this free text so I can quickly delete it-or better yet, a command that will simply delete the text in this field? If I don't delete it, BWS just adds the data into the field with the rest of the data. By the way, in this field, (just using the keyboard and not BWS), "cntrl-A" doesn't select the data; therefore, I can't send a "cntrl-A" with BWS to select all data. To do this manually, I have to do a ctrl-shift-end to highlight the data from the first character to the last character and then press delete. However, with BWS, I haven't been able to figure a way to send ctrl-shift-end.
