Many times selecting an item is difficult or sometimes impossible when in the floor plan view as most items are selected at their edges and not at the body of the item.I bet you don't have 'quick selection' turned on! Its the little magnet symbol in the info bar. This allows you to select anything by hovering over the body. Hold down shift as well for faster highlighting to see what you are selecting, and to select/deselect multiple items.

This can be done in the 3D Window so all of these windows in the project can be selected and altered in one step.
Dave as for info I did go read about the "Find and Select" function but again it seemed to take a lot of mouse clicks for selecting objects on one floor and it didn't seem to allow for differentiation between entities of the same type (eg. window 48" wide and window 30" wide) and would select all the windows which might not be the desired result.
