If you want to perform a given operation on multiple fields, text blocks, shapes, etc., one way is to simply use your mouse to draw a rectangle, highlighting the selected objects.

1.Position the mouse at the top-left of the temporary "rectangle" you wish to draw.
2.Hold the left-mouse button down and position your mouse to the bottom-right of the region of the rectangle you wish to draw (containing the objects).
3.Release the mouse button.

Now, all of the objects are highlighted. Use the menus or right-click the mouse to bring up a context menu where you can perform more operations.
