Selecting an Object
You can select one or more objects in several ways.
• Click an object to select it.
• Shift-click to select multiple objects.
• Click an object such as a table once to select it, and then click
again to select an individual table cell. Do the same to select an
individual comb element.
• Hold down the mouse button and drag the cursor around or
through all objects to select them.

in the Edit menu to select all objects on a form.
