I have noticed similar behavior. As I select more lines with
Shift-Down-Arrow, entire lines are not spoken or selected. I have noticed
this is MS Word 2010 and Windows 7.5. I believe it was happening with 7.2
and MS Word 2003, also. I have Windows XP SP3.

Subject: Strange Behavior When Highlighting blocks of Text to Copy or Cut


I upgraded from WE 7.0 to 7.5. I don't remember this confusing behavior in 7.0.

When in Word or Outlook, both version 2007, I position my cursor to begin either a copy or cut, then hold down the shift key and start down-arrowing to start highlighting, and by the second or third down-arrow I start hearing the first
letter or so of each new line disappear.  What's causing that? I find it
difficult to know exactly where I am, especially since a short line may have only a single word on it, or a plank line may contain the first letter of the next full ine, at least I think that's what I'm hearing. It really slows you
down.

Anyone else noticing this?

I'm running Windows XP Pro, sp3 and all critical updates.
