Hi, Sue. Here's one thing I do if I do seem to be having trouble. Go into the field with forms mode. Do a select all just like you would in any other word processor with a Control-A. Then, paste the text into Notepad or something else. You can cut and paste comfortably from there, then when you're done, go back into the synopsis field, again doing a control-A to make sure all the text stays selected. Then, paste the text you've edited back into the field. I don't think I'm saying this exactly how I meant to but hopefully you understand what I mean. Take care. -- Julie Morales Email & Windows/MSN Messenger: mercy421@xxxxxxxxxxx Skype: mercy0421 Please contact me if I may not recognize your contact info before adding me or I may not add you!

Some submitters just paste the whole info from the book jacket in for the long synopsis. Gerald said it is illegal to use praise quotes and where they are from in the long synopsis. So, as a validator, I would want to remove those quotes, and they are sometimes in the middle of the long synopsis. Now for you, Kellie. You got it. I have trouble selecting the text that needs to be deleted or cut, when in the edit field and in forms mode. Is there an easy way to do this? And if so, what are the commands? Thanks much, Sue S. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kellie Hartmann" <hart0421@xxxxxxx> To: <bookshare-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, August 31, 2006 1:50 PM Subject: [bookshare-discuss] Re: Just Submitted Hi Sue, Are you familiar with the different commands for selecting text? They should work in the edit field on the form.
