Hi zkac050,

You might try to use Selection.setFocus; and then Selection.setSelection();

the thing is , the selection only allows you to select one highlighted but when i tried to do multiple selections, it would only highlight the last selection. Is there any way to do multiple selections?

only one selection at a time
