Text selection

[Greg Wills]

Hi Everyone

A few questions regarding selecting text in a field.

1.  I want to highlight a word that is clicked. I have had a number 
of tries, but seem to be only able to highlight the whole line.

2.  The second part of this action is to play a sound file of the 
word selected. The language that I am using has dashes and full stops 
(periods) in the word. eg. "yaka-yora" and "ki.yirriy". If I click on 
these words only the first (or second) part of the word is selected. 
Is there a way to click on the word and select the whole word and not 
be divided by the non-alphabet character?

regards
