Default Highlighting or Selecting TextBox entry

In attempting to trap bad data (for the application) being entered into text
boxes from a form, the exit event of the private sub works well to identify
the problem and return focus to the text box. However, I am not able to
take it a step further and actually highlight (or select) the errant text
for correction. The SelText property doesn't seem to work, or I'm not
applying it correctly.

Thanks,
Gus
