This command does not work in the Message Box, apparently since the
message box entry field retains the focus. However, when you create a
button with only this command in the mouseUp handler it ought to work
just fine. Are you doing other things with your button script that might
get in the way?

Curious....this works here. You don't have an 'on openField' or some
other handler that might interfere?

I want to programatically select text in a field as if I had
doubleclicked it. For example... I want to select word 4 of a field.

When I enter the following statement in the Message Box or in a
button:

        select word 4 of field "one"

The insertion point flashes in the field and the focus border
flashes but no text is selected. How do I do this?
