create interactive simulation - user selects text

[zaqza]

I'm new to Captivate and I hope I'm just overlooking something simple. I'm creating an interactive custom recording (using Word) where I've inserted click boxes for users to click the appropriate buttons. But now I need them to select certain text. Is there a "select text" object for this?

BTW, aside from watching videos, is there a overall tutorial I can reference?

Thanks!

There is no capability in Captivate for the user to drag across text in a simulation.  My suggestion is that you place a click box over the text on the background graphic, tell the user to double-click the text instead of dragging to select it, and then use this action to jump to another slide where the text is shown as selected.

Rod, that is what I ended up doing. Not ideal but it looks fairly seamless. Thanks for the help!
