You cannot put stuff before the Message Box

The thing here is that if there is already a selection in the message box, 
a blinking cursor or hillited text, you cannot select before (or after) 
either the "results" field or the "message" field. It only works if there is no 
selection at all. 

Trying to do so selects all the text in the "message" field, even if you 
explicitly name the "results" field. This is written into the IDE. Some people 
find this counterintuitive. I'll bet you do too.

It can be unwritten; see my last two posts.
