Hi Mike, At the beginning of the text to be selected, press Control+Windows+K, this makes a temporary place marker at the beginning of your text. At the end of the text to be copied, press Insert+Spacebar, you will hear a sound, Then press the letter M, this will select all text between the temporary place marker and the end of the text, press Control+C, will copy all the block of text, then just paste with Control+V in to your word document. Good luck, Smiles.

Good morning all! Using the latest version of JAWS 18, (Build 2945), I'm encountering an issue when trying to copy text from a web page into a word document. I am able to highlight the text, but unable to copy and paste it to my document. When I press Control C, JAWS says nothing, indicating that nothing has been copied. This is confirmed, when I go to my document and press Control plus V. The text that I selected does not copy to my document. A sighted user can copy and paste the text without any problems. Why is this happening?
