See the post I sent earlier as to why this is. But in a basic sense Windows+c is a Jaws only command, not a standard windows command and is limmited in what it can or can't do. Not even windows standard commands can append to the clipboard... -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of J.

I got that too. however, I for the heck of it, tried, after selecting the 3 files, copied it to the clip, then skipped the next 4 files, then hit one more file using control/down arrow, but this time, hit windows key/c to append to clip board. it says not in a text window. Why did it not append the extra file I copied to the board? J.
