Since upgrading from FrontPage 2002 to 2003 recently I've
discovered that I have trouble selecting a string of rows
in a table by clicking on the first row, scroll down the
page, then shift-click on the last row to select all
cells between my clicks. This works in all Microsoft
products (and others) but not in FP2003??? If, for
instance, I have a page that is comprised of a table and
it is 25 cells per column and I want to select 10 rows in
the center. I normally select the first row that I want,
then scroll down to the last row that I want and shift-
click it to highlight (select) all between. In FP 2003 it
seems to select 2 or 3 at the beginning then every other
one to the end. How do I over come this problem?
 
I don't see that behavior
- are you sure you aren't "bridging" to another table

Try selecting the row and using your Shift key plus your keyboard down (right/left) arrows

No, It's the same tables. It's very odd. It usually
selects a group of cells at the top of the table, then
alternates to every other one the rest of the way down
the table. I build my pages from tables. Thr selections I
am refering to are from tables within tables.
