narration longer than 120 mins

if my narration is 155 minutes and acx standard is 120 mins per chapter, how can I quickly highlight 0 mins to 120 mins and 'create new' file . Then I can do the same for the remaining section. I'm just not sure how to quickly highlight a section without dragging my highlighted section until I have reached the 120 min section of my audio. Are there keyboard keys that do this or rightclick something that allows me to highlight a lengthy section of my audio?  Thank you!

Thank you.  I ended up going to the 1 hour mark on my audio and holding down the Shift button and clicking Home.  That highlighted half of my audio and then I clicked on 'create new' and then went back to that 1 hour mark and clicked on Shift + End and that highlighted the second half of my audio.

Much appreciated!

Try using the Selection/View panel:

 You can highlight entries in it and enter precise times with the keyboard, or you can drag the numbers with the mouse - either way it's pretty quick.
