How to get selected text from non-editable text field in silverlight for wp7

Question

I want to have a text box with text that the user can select but not edit, and I want to perform some operations on this text.

I create a text box and set IsReadOnly = "True". When I click on some text, I see that it is highlighted, but when the SelectionChanged event fires, textBox1.SelectedText is empty.

When IsReadOnly = "False", it works, but the keyboard pops up, which I don't want. Does anyone know how to achieve what I want? Any help would be appreciated.
