Summary:
The click-and-drag method of selecting text with the mouse in the
Programmer's WorkBench (PWB) versions 1.0 and 1.1 sometimes works
incorrectly when used after a search function.
To reproduce this problem, do the following:
1. Select a word in the text using the mouse (double-click on a single
word).
2. Run the search function (select the Search menu, choose Find,
then OK).
3. Now try to highlight the text a few lines below the word you used
to search on (using the click-and-drag method).
The text will be highlighted starting at the original word that was
searched for, rather than at the starting mouse position.
To work around this problem, click the left button anywhere in the
text window, then perform the text highlight.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in PWB versions 1.0 and
1.1. We are researching this problem and will post new information
here as it becomes available.
