I can put a rectangle around the target area, and it will select all objects,
including text



However in this case I would like to select all objects except text objects, or
perhaps select all then deselect the text objects. Does Illustrator have an
easy way to do this?

If you plan ahead you can....


Select > Object > Text Objects
Object > Lock > Selection
Click-drag to select what is not locked
When done, Object > Unlock All to access the text objects again.


You might also find it helpful to save a selection (Select > Save Selection) this will allow you to quickly re-select something.
