Double click selection behaviour

by skrappost66 . Updated 16 years, 8 months ago

I have two computers (both Win XP SP3) with different behaviour in notepad and text fields in some other applications. When I double click a word with a hyphen (such as “abc-def”) in notepad, on one computer the whole word gets selected. On the other only the part of the word where I clicked gets selected. This is the behaviour I want: the hyphen should act as a delimiter. How can I change this behaviour? In MS Office Word, the hyphen acts as a delimiter on both computers, so this seems like a system setting..?

Thanks!
