How to Set AutoCAD to allow multiple object choosing

[maquetteLA]

I am hoping this makes sense, but I am running
AutoCAD 2000 and when I hit “copy” I can
chose to copy multiple objects / lines individually without having the “shift” key down.
But on AutoCAD 2004 that feature is disabled
I have to have the “shift” key down in order
to chose more than one object. I am sure this
is a simple setting but I can’t seem to figure it out
please help.
Thanks.

PICKADD

set pickadd variable to 1


Controls whether subsequent selections replace the current selection set or add to it.

0 Turns off PICKADD. The objects most recently selected become the selection set. Previously selected objects are removed from the selection set. Add more objects to the selection set by pressing SHIFT while selecting.
1 Turns on PICKADD. Each object selected, either individually or by windowing, is added to the current selection set. To remove objects from the set, press SHIFT while selecting.
