Good morning to you too Don,

I am one of those who was at first puzzled as to why such a function was even necessary until I found it to be a real asset when reading Bookshare DAISY books with Internet Explorer. The problem there is that these books don't present the separation between sections, chapters and parts in a way that is all that obvious while in the process of reading, unless you are closely listening for it. With the F8 method, you can lock the beginning of your selection in place while moving to the next header and pressing the f8 key again in order to end the selection in that desired spot, where you can copy the selected text for pasting into a Word or NopePad document for reading.When using the shift arrow method, you can easily get lost in the text you are trying to work with, not to mention completely lose your selection by mistakenly pressing the wrong key combination, and that can get real frustrating real fast. I use this handy method nearly every day when reading books of all kinds.

Long live the f8 feature <smile>.

Morning all:

Ok, like others, I hate this new way of copying and pasting.

So, some questions

1.        Does copy and paste work the same way in word and emails and in
note pad?

Next, what I tried sure did not work by function 8 to select and f8 to end

Please, what do I do to make it work

Thanks

Don
