Sorry about that! My keyboard was taken over by multiple movements, momentarily. Here's a MAC article you may find helpful: http://www.uis.edu/its/otherservices/documents/Other/BasicTechTips.pdf. I'm using WinXP Pro and found that Shift+UpArrow (or down arrow) depending on your cursor placement will select a sentence. It works for me in the abovementioned pdf file, as well as OpenOffice Writer. I haven't tried all of the suggested shortcuts, however, since one of them works for me, perhaps others will too.
