Paul,
You can do it on client side. Handle body onload event and call select()
method for the <input type=text...> element representing the textbox.

Hi folks. I have a WebControl TextBox which I would like to force to
select all it's text during PreRender. My problem is that I don't know how to do
this. I already have a reference to the control by using FindControl(),
but I don't see any method or property I can use to set the selection range.
I am looking for something like SelectionStart() and SelectionLength().
The WinForms TextBox has these methods, but the Web Forms does not. Any
ideas on how to do this?
