The oview object is of class IDLitgrView and the select method is
defined in that class i.e. not inherited. The content assist doesn't
seem to find any methods that are defined in IDLitgrView, but only picks
up the inherited ones. There are some odd (but legal) formatting for the
comments at the beginning of the file. I fixed a couple lines and it
works -- it must cache it because it still works for me even after I put
the original file back.
