Ole: Thanks for replying. You are correct, my version does return an "Objects", but it works. Yours does not (returns a "Character"), though in fact nothing is selected on-screen, not even the first character, which is what I would naively think the code would do.

I want to have all the text selected, so that the next user-typed letter replaces the selection.

Am I wrong to want the argument of Select to be a collection? Is there some other way?
