Message box mild oddity

[DunbarX at aol.com]

These things likely only seem to matter to me. At least I keep them short.

In a locked list field with a few lines of text, place this in the field 
script:

on mouseUp
   put space & the selectedLine of me into fld "message field" of stack 
"message box"
   select before text of fld "message field" of stack "message box"
end mouseUp

You should know as a rule I click and release pretty fast.

1- If one clicks on a line of the field, you get a cursor blinking before the 
msg text. I expected nothing less.
2- But if you then click a different line, you always select the entire msg 
box text.

The only way to get back to condition "1" is to either click somewhere else, 
anywhere else, and then go back and click a line of text in the field. OR, do 
a slower mouseClick, that is hold the mouse down for a half second before 
releasing, in which case you can click all day in the field.

This isn't particularly urgent. I have a love/hate relationship with msg.
