My empirical testing has shown ....
Double-clicking a word puts a box around it. Triple-clicking a word puts a box around the entire row. Quadruple-clicking removes the box. Note, the clicks have to all be within a timely fashion.
If you double-click and create a box around a word and then press ctrl+C the text is copied to the clip board and the box disappears.
If you double-click and the box appears and you do NOT move the mouse you can click 1 time and the box disappears.
If you double-click and the box appears and you DO move the mouse you will then need to click somewhere outside of the box to remove the box...or use ctrl+C.
I don't think this is an option you can turn on or off - I just think that this is the way it works.

I'm not sure how you enabled double-click - there are options in the "Hotspots..." item of Edit/Preferences to point-and-select - so a double-click on a blank area is the same as and Enter key, while a double-click on a string causes the string to be entered at the cursor and enter pressed.
I've never had the rectangle appear when I use a double-click after I've set those options. I'm currently using ACS, it is the same in PC5250.
So is there a different way you are recognizing a double-click in your program?

We have enabled double click to allow functions for example select the
transaction.
When you double click the area on the screen will have a rectangle
around any value which would allow Ctrl-C to be used to copy that data.
Do you know if there is anyway to stop the rectangle being shown.
This user is doing data entry and using the double click but gets
annoyed with having to click somewhere else to get rid of the rectangle.
I have been through the preferences and can see no way to turn the
copy on double click off
Thank you for any suggestions
