I keep having issues when I am trying to select features using the selection tool on the Edit menu tab. It doesn't matter what I do, it will not select anything using the tool. The only way that I have been able to select a feature, is by using the attribute table, which is very annoying. Is anyone else having this issue?

Have you ensured that you have enabled the layer to be selected under the List by Selection options of the Contents pane? By default, running GP tools bypass this option for restricting which layers can be selected.

I went back and made sure, but yes the layer is selectable. I even tried making it the only selectable layer and that didn't do anything either. Thanks for trying, let me know if you think of anything else to try.

Try rebuilding the spatial index for the feature class. I have seen where a corrupt/stale spatial index could cause this behavior.
