You're right it isn't, so I've split it to a new topic and given it a more appropriate title.

To repeat a selection you can use "Effect menu > Repeat"

Alternatively you can select the section then copy and paste it (either from the Edit menu or with the usual keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V).

If you're really using the ancient 1.2.x version of Audacity I'd highly recommend that you upgrade to Audacity 1.3.13 http://audacityteam.org/download/
