Actually you do have block selection in programs like Microsoft word. So this really doesn't brake the standard. How-ever I agree that both should be an option. I do like block selection when selecting a large portion of text. When selecting a small portion of text though block selection just doesn't make sense. Hth

From an earlier email I read, it sounds like the regular text-selection method *will* be back, we just don't know when. Sometimes it works for me, sometimes not.
