Hi Shannon and Others, I've been using this Services menu option to send selections to TextEdit since Tiger -- which is the very first version of Mac OS X to support VoiceOver. The main practical difference in using this in versions starting with Snow Leopard is that you have to check a box under a table in the Keyboard Shortcuts pane of System Preferences to determine which items show up under the Services menu. In Tiger and Leopard, the option automatically appeared under the TextEdit submenu of Services as "New window containing selection". As Colin stated, my earlier post gives a link to step-by-step instructions to enable this Services menu option, and additionally assign a keyboard shortcut.
HTH.
