You could do a:

keyboard '{END}'

keyboard '{HOME}'

keyboard '{SHIFT+END}'

and it *might* work. I say *might* because there are cases where it doesn't

work (like having a textbox/editbox contained in a container class that's

programmatically added to a grid ... in which case NOTHING works to

auto-select text reliably). I'm sure there are other methods to achieve what

you want, but my brain is mush at the moment having had the pleasure of

debugging a chain of MS Exchange Servers all morning (F#*&!!##KIN#@##@!).
