multiple select of e-mails (or any list of items)

[Guest michehrlich]

One fundamental manipulation when managing e-mail in a time-efficient way is a multiple select of a range of mails (on a PC that would be via the shift key for an uninterrupted range or the ctrl key for non-contiguous selects), so that one can do a particular manipulation (move, delete, etc.) on the selected messages. Is this possible in WinMo 6 Pro? If so, how is it done?

Its basically the same as on a PC.

Open the Messaging application at the account you want to use.

Tap the Keyboard icon to bring up the SIP.

For non contiguous selection, tap the CTRL key on the keyboard- it will remain 'sticky' allowing multiple selections

For contiguous selection use the 'Shift' key.

Both these remain 'on' till tapped to turn off again, and survive scrolling :)

Thanks Neil. That does indeed work (and the scrolling is indeed a killer :P

Pity that the hardware shift key doesn't work in the same way...

Thanks again, though.
