Have you ever looked at the virtualize current window or virtualize current control feature? You'll need the virtualize window feature for this, unless the key is inside of a control. To virtualize the window, press JAWS key+CTRL+w. It will render as a web page, so you can navigate it, select and copy text, etc, just like you would on a web page.

Is there any way to highlight text while using the JAWS cursor? I will probably have to upgrade to AVG 8.5 soon, because support for 7.5 is apparently ending on April 30. This may involve entering my AVG license key, which contains more than 30 characters, into an edit field during the update/registration procedure. However, the license key is located on the AVG About submenu and is readable only by using the JAWS cursor. I would like to highlight the license key so that I can copy it to the clipboard for subsequent pasting into a notepad file or email message that I can save for easy retrieval. But placing the JAWS cursor at the beginning of the license key and pressing Shift in combination with any of the arrow keys does not seem to select the characters in the key. Switching back to the PC cursor renders the license key inaccessible. This is my only record of the license key. So is there any way I can highlight the license key for copying and pasting while using the JAWS cursor? Or must I memorize this long string of characters and type it manually? Thanks for any help.
