= SUMMARY =

If you have activated Column Select (SHIFT+F6) to select text, and you also have the Options “show layout:” field set to Yes (“LY” appears in the status bar), you will be unable to use the arrow keys or the PGDN and the PGUP key to extend the highlight over the following:


 * 1) Page breaks
 * 2) Any column other than the current column (a column is created with the Format Division Layout command)

If you want to extend the highlight beyond the current page or the current column, you must turn Show Layout mode off by pressing ALT+F4 or by setting the Options “show layout:” field to No.
