[BRF] F6 Editor - copy not working for combo boxes

For some reason I am unable to select text in the F6 editor screen, either using my mouse or Select All.  When I do use Select All nothing is highlighted, and if I then use Copy nothing is copied to the "clipboard".  Is the problem with my app or the program?

What F6 Editor are you in? The one in Runtime or the one in Sdesigner? I can use SelectAll and Copy in both of them.

Is it one element or all of them?

I was updating records.  I wanted to copy some text from one field to another, needed to use the text editor to select a portion of too-long text.

After a few tests, I find that I can use highlight/select/copy in elements that are not filled from combo lists, but in combo list elements I cannot.  If you still have my Miara app handy, try it in my Invoice database, second tab, in any of the combo list elements.

Bump.  Ray, did you get a chance to look at this?

Yeah I did. It's got something to do with the code that puts the values back into the element. It has been written up.
