I RUN LT 2008 AND WHEN SELECTING OBJECTS TO COPY, MIRROR ETC I CAN ONLY SELCT ONE AT A TIME - IF I SELECT A SECOND OBJECT, THE FIRST IS UN-SELECTED.  THIS DID NOT HAPPEN ON PREVIOUS VERSIONS.  PLEASE ADVISE ON SETTING TO ENABLE ME TO SELECT MULTIPLE OBJECTS.

It is the [VAR]PICKADD[/VAR] setting - see the tip:

Hi,
 
If you are not aware of the system variable pickadd, you can go to
OPTIONS(OP) > SELECTION > SELECTION MODES > here de-select the
USE SHIFT TO ADD TO SELECTION option and say ok.
 
Your normal selection mode is back.
Hope it helps you
