Hi Norma; What I just tried running XP Home & Jaws 10 is; 1. I opened the My Documents folder. 2. Invoked the Jaws key, control, shift, & W, keystroke. This virtualizes the current control only. 3. Pressed control + A, to select all. 4. Control + C, to copy, & control + V, to paste into a Word document.
Now you will have to delete the file names you don't want but, it did only copy the file names. This was only an experiment but, give it a try & see if it works for you. Hope this helps. Take care.
