If you are using Window-Eyes 8 or later, you have a new way to do this. Stay in Browse mode. Go to the beginning of the material and press shift-ctrl-C. Move to the other end (not holding down the Shift to highlight it) and press shift-ctrl-C again. You get a dialog box with several choices of what to copy to the Windows clipboard. But you can copy formatted text, HTML, text with graphics, etc. to the clipboard reliably by this means. When you go to paste the material into Word or another program, you may get a dialog from IE asking if you really want IE to be accessed by Window-Eyes. I know this works in Windows 7, and hopefully it works in XP. You may need to do some experiments on which format to use but that’s the new way of doing this. ,

Dear List: I am using windows xp and internet explorer 8. The directions I have for copying a table and preserve the tabular lay-out tell me to do the following: Go to the beginning of the table. I did that. I did not go into table mode. Then it said to turn off browse mode, so I did. Then, I am to rout the mouse to the cursor with the insert-numpad plus. I did that and window-eyes said pointer routed to element. Now, it said to left click. After hitting the left mouse button, window-eyes says desktop. After the left click, it said to do the control-c to copy. So, something is wrong with my instructions that takes me to the desktop. What I was doing was going to maps.com and then clicking on the link called driving directions. Then after putting in my beginning and ending address, it gave me the results back in a table from which I was going to copy and send to someone. Please let me know what is wrong with my instructions. Thanks. Regards: Ted Larson If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
