Mornin' All Here is my Edit field .. I can edit it with the key board but no copy, cut or paste But that's not my concern at the moment .. I can't figure out why the entire Text is Highlighted when the page opens .. I DON'T WANT it to be highlighted but I can't find any reference to WHY its highlighted or HOW to un Highlight it .. A SLOPPY way would be to have the cursor Click when the page opens .. I want the Elegant way .. I want it un highlighted when the window opens EDIT FIELD #-_infoFLD, "", ( 18,50)-(798,580), _NoFramed SCROLL BUTTON #-_infoFLD, 1, 1,,, (800,44)-(823,587), _scrollOther textID% = gMainPage + 1000 EDIT$ (_infoFLD) = %textID% Jim Henson,The Vegas Swede, (^_^) s aplenty Las Vegas is the Number One Fun Capital Of The World An Oasis Dedicated To Around The Clock Entertainment Come Often, Enjoy Its Many Pleasures, Stay A Spell And Bring Lots Of Money, Help Keep Nevada Green
