When you read the 'why notes sucks' sites, this one shows up a lot. Every other multi-row-like app in the world allows users to click a row, scroll down to some end point and shift click to select a range of items. The 'click and drag' thing confuses folks.

This is available in Lotus Notes 8

because Lotus pulled out the gutter!

It's still not working as it should in Notes 8, for example try this:
Select doc 1, hold Ctrl hand select doc 3, hold Ctrl and select doc 5, now hold Shift and select doc 10. It should keep doc 1 and 3 in the selection also, but it just kills their selection and selects doc 5 to 10.
I need to add this to my "Why Notes Sucks" list also :)

Oh nm, it's working correctly, I forgot to hold down Ctrl+Shift at the last step. Where's the Edit/Delete button for replies?

Mika, you were right, it does not work as it should. For example:
click the check column for doc 1, ctrl-click the check column for doc 3, click once on doc 5 so the selection box is on it (but no check mark), now ctrl-shift-click the check column for doc 10. Since doc 3 is the last one checked, 3-10 should now be checked, but ctrl-shift-click checks everything from the selection box down, not from the last checked entry down - in other words, doc 4 should be checked, but it is not

@4 the message thread can be purged via a preference setting. You'll see this in 8.x; Notes added the gutter that @2 referred to in 8.0.2+
