Notes

The start value may be greater than the end value. The smaller of the two values refers to the first character position of selected text. The greater value refers to the first character position beyond selected text.

The start value is a fixed selected text point, while the end value is a varying end point.

If the start point is 0 and the end point is -1, all the texts in the edit control are selected. If the start point is -1, active selection is released.

You can identify the control by using a complete caption or an associated label name or specifying the first part of such a caption or label name. When specifying the first part, prefix a swung dash (~) to the character string that you specify.
