I wish to report success. Using shift f8 did the trick.
1k of thanks to Gary King for giving me the solution.
I have been struggling with this for a month now.
Is this key stroke documented somewhere?
Many Thanks
Phil

Phil,
Try using Shift+F8 and then arrow down to the items you want to select and
press Spacebar on each of the items.
