Thank you very Much.
As John said, turn on the Multi-Select. Then it's standard Windows key's.
1. Click first,hold shift, click on last.
2. Use Ctrl To select/un-select individual entires, etc.
With multi select on, you'll need to use the Selected property to determine which have been selected for processing:
