I apologise for the 1st response, I thought you were just trying to detect a “Focused” event.

CaptureFocus() is for setting the focus. I need the text in the TextBox to be Highlighted when focused

I was going to add to that script when I found some way of achieving what you’re trying to do but after extensive searching I don’t think that it’s possible. I was able to highlight text by double clicking but not after a single click.
