Message Maybe someone could test this out. The attached JPEG show the results of a Select by Location for points within a selected polygon, using the "are completely within" and the having "Use selected features" checked.

Thanks, Gary

Message Just figured out that it only seems to happens if there are multiple features selected for the layer that is being used to DO the selecting. If only one feature is selected the select by location seems to work fine.

Message If one were to 'Select by Location' using a single selected feature and then attempt to add to the selected features using 'Select by Location' with a different single selected feature, ArcMap will select far too many features in the targeted layer.

Message I actually spoke to ESRI about this and it's a bug related to select by location using datalayers from SDE 9.2. It should be all set in the final release.
