Selection Property
Property of Text.
Text selection specified in terms of character positions for the beginning and end of selection (both inclusive). If you set the start and end to be the same, LabVIEW inserts a caret into the text.
If you want to highlight the text, you must set key focus on a control before you use the Selection property.
