    Default MTEXT

    Okay, I'm sure this one is elementary also, but I can't do it so.....................
    when I do a ddedit in regular text, it highlights the entire text string automatically, so when I need to rewrite something, it's already highlighted.
    When I do it in mtext, it puts the cursor in the front, so I have to manually highlight it. Not that big of a deal, but it bugs me.
    Is there any way to have mtext highlight the text string automatically?

    Yeah, I keep forgetting about the standard Windows accelerator keys, or whatever they are called. Just gotta get used to it. Thanks for the reminder.
