There are two kinds of selection -- individual objects, which can be selected by clicking on them and region selection.

To select a region, hold down the Ctrl key and then click/drag the mouse over the area you want to select. You'll get a blue box over the region.

If you want to select a region larger than what is shown on the screen, use Ctrl-click-drag to select a small initial area, then arrow or scroll to the place you want to end and use Shift-click. The box will extend to the end of the region you want.

You can then copy, cut or paste into the region.

To select objects within the region, use the Region menu and select notes, lyrics, etc.

Good luck.
