hi
I've had problems with copy, cut and paste ever since I formatted my pc and
re installed jaws 9. I never had this problem before then.
I cant understand it as jaws appears so different since a re installing to a
new drive. Technically, all that has changed is the drive, not jaws nor
windows.
Very weird.

Hi Victor and list:
Sorry that I can't help, but I am having these same exact problems. In
fact,
when I forward a message in OE and arrow down and press control shift home
to get rid of all the junk I don't want to pass on, I can no longer do
this.
I am using JAWS 10. Doing this in adobe is absolutely such a nightmare
that
I can no longer use Jaws as my primary screen reader. What I have noticed
is
that the select, copy, and paste functions in all the areas you mentioned
are getting progressively worse ever since version 6. Yes, I have spoken
to
tech support several times. Take-care, Deb.

Hi Folks,
Like that other person who was having trouble, quite often, in fact, this
happens all the time, when I go to copy text from a web page into a
document, notepad, WordPad or e-mail, I get some kind of code instead of
the
text I've highlighted, copied and pasted.
This is getting fairly troublesome, as I often do this type of copying and
pasting to help friends with problems they may have, and where I find a
relevant bit of text on the net that can help them.
I'm using Jaws 10, latest build, Windows XP, Word 2003 and Outlook Express
6.
As far as I know, all of my settings are configured properly with the
configuration manager under highlighting options, and so I'm at a loss to
understand why this is.
I also have a problem where I am composing an e-mail, and, when I press
the
down arrow in combination with the shift key to select the text, the line
will select, however, half of the words seem to be selected, as opposed to
the word. I mean it's like that function, called smart highlighting or
something like that, is turned off.
I've also come across a time or two, where I want to highlight a few words
in an e-mail message, whether reading to copy to another message, or just
composing the message for copying and pasting to a spot further down in
the
message, or what ever, where, instead of the whole word being selected
only,
the entire word is selected, right along with half, or a few letters of
the
next word.
Can anyone help me with this.
Sorry for the long message, but I wasn't sure if those two things below
were
significant or not.
Thanks all.
Victor
