In Vista, you can hold down the Shift key while pressing the Applications key. Several more options will be available, including "Copy as path". This copies the full path to the clipboard just as the recommended program. It should also add "Pin to Start menu", which can be useful too.

Hi Alan,
When you have finished your search:
1. highlight the file in question

2. press the Applications or context key

3. arrow down to "Open containing Folder" and press enter.

4. Press F6 to get to the AddressBar.

5. The path is already highlighted so just hit Control plus C to copy it to
your clipboard.

Jon

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Copying file path name

Good morning,

I was recently using the search for files & folders on my XP machine with
JAWS 11 (don't think the version is relevant but listed it anyway) The file I was looking for was located in a directory with a very long path name to
it's location.
Part of it sounded like it may be cut off due to it's length. Is there a way
to copy that pathname and then paste it into notepad and read the entire
thing or save for future reference?

thanks
Al
