Vista Bug: Cannot Highlight Multiple Sections or Products

[grantglendinnin]

Tested this on three machines just to make sure.

Using 9.0.3, on Windows Vista Ultimate. XP Home and XP Pro work as expected.

I highlight a section, hold the shift button, and press down to highlight several sections - in the aim of deleting several sub-sections - it can't be done, only one section will highlight.

Similar story for products, I can only highlight two at a maximum.

Bug, anyone?

I can click on a section hold shift then click on a section 4 beneath and it will highlight all of the sections in between.

Aye, you can click laddie, but can you use the keyboard method?

[Rich Brady]

Ah... *Laddie hangs head in shame*

If you can use the click method, why:

Nope, the trackball mouse is still here. But it's the principle that counts, this works in XP but not Vista. This means the *physically faster PC* makes life harder because having to reach for the mouse every second wastes approx 0.83685353241090132874362498297353 seconds, but then again..it uses Vista so why am I expecting it to be any faster?

Still, it's a bug and adds to my list of 'annoyances with OS compatibility'

I hope you have an independent adjudicator to authenticate that claim?

Yeah I definitely have one of those. It's the same dude that authorised Freddie Goodwin's pension Slightly flawed numbering but I'm sure it's almost there!

not only that, but the length of accuracy you display, is basically the quantum tick of the universe.

I believe you have stumbled on a portal to humanities raison d'etre.

Stick with it.
