The remaining problems is that all text is select *whenever* a textbox receives a mouse click - even when trying to select some of the text. Again, an attached property can come to the rescue so the "HasFocus" state of a textbox can be recorded after the first mouse up event and subsequent clicks allowed without selecting all. The HasFocus attached property can be set to false when the text box loses focus so the next time it receives focus the text will again be highlighted. Thanks for the idea.
