When I am Browsing my features, they are selected, and if I validate topology, the selection disappears, however, they are still selected in the Browse Features Window, and if I Next to the record that I am reviewing, the selection graphic shows up again, any way to not have the selection disappear.

I have tested on a machine running only ArcGIS 10 Desktop, I do the following:

1. Select a feature.
2. Zoom to selected feature.
3. Validate Topology In Current Extent. The feature is unselected.

The selection disappears when Esri Production Mapping 10 or ArcGIS Data Reviewer 10 are not installed on the machine.

It seems that this is an issue with the core ArcMap functionality and not with Production Mapping or Data Reviewer.

Yes, and no.  I am just thinking that Reviewer should override the unselection from topology when a validation occurs, but really, I still want it to select and unselect when not reviewing data, perhaps a flag in an advanced property setting that overrides this capability, driven by Reviewer.  This probably doesn't make sense, and really not a bad thing overall.  Its just that, perhaps I validate initially in the workflow, after identifying and either writing to a table or browsing the features.  I then have to reselect something that was unselected to act on it for correction purposes, seems like a step could be removed from the workflow, if there was a capability to override this topology functionality, but like I said not a super big deal.

A related post is here about how I like the Browse capability.  http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/15803-Core-Selection-and-Browse-Selection
