Franck, your approach is somewhat cumbersome. Here is a shorter solution that does all you want with two simple shortcuts.

Sub Main
    ' generalized solution for selecting the entire contents of a text or text box when Ctrl-A does not work
    SendKeys "^{home}", True 'to go to the beginning of the document, press Ctrl-Home
    SendKeys "^+{end}", True 'to select everything, press Ctrl-Shift-End
End Sub

Ctrl+Home/End goes to the Start/End of document. Using the hotkeys go to the start first, then hold down shift, then go to the end.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_keyboard_shortcuts for more hotkeys you might find useful and never knew about.

I haven't found any such shortcut. I simply hold Page UP for a while to place the mouse cursor at the beginning of the box, then hold SHIFT + Page DOWN till it reaches the end.
