Issue selecting multiple objects in design mode.

[Dundon5249]

I have been working on a db and am close to being finished. The problem I have run into is, I cannot select multiple objects in design view to change a property that is common to all. This worked until yesterday, Example: Select all txtboxes on a form and change width. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Using MS access 365.

The simplest method is usually to lasso them with the mouse
OR hold down the CTRL key as you click on each object in turn

Thanks for the reply. I could always "lasso" several objects as needed. I can now only use CTRL key and mouse to select them one at a time until i have selected what is needed.
