Using V8i SELECT series 3 Ver 08.11.09.459 and I cannot get SINGLE CLICK - LOCKED in user preferences LOOK and FEEL to stay locked on elements. ie to move an element more than once I have to select it before every move. Tried re-installing and tried different PC. I have read about others having this problem but have not seen any solution yet.

I have found the operation that you were requesting. It is an item in the AccuSnap Settings called "Identify Elements Automatically". This is turned on by default in all V8 versions.
> Settings > Snaps > AccuSnap
If you turn this off the operation of the Move tool will revert back to the way it worked in MicroStation /J.
Have a look at this AskInga Article on the Bentley Community Wikis as it explains in a little more detail.

I hope this information is of assistance.
