With[ {p = ToExpression[CurrentValue[InputNotebook[], "SelectionData"]]}, PresentTmpls[p] I found a similar code fragment on MathGroup. I wanted to use it in my palette. However, once the palette is standalone it fails to work; otherwise within a current session of a notebook it works fine. Is there a more stable way to grab a text selection so it can be used for further use in code? Thanks. Andrew
