Select any of the objects, then continue to press the tab key until you reach the one you want.

Hi GT

Which version do you use? 2007 has the fabulous new selection pane which
allows you to hide objects temporarily, whereas in 2003 I would use the
'select multiple objects' dialogue or the tab key.
