I am coming in late on this thread, but what are you haveing trouble with I am 
using JAWS 9 and am haveing no problems doing this. infact, it works better 
than JAWS 8 if you are working with tables for example.  and you can always 
play with the select and copy option in the jaws optionss dialog to see if that 
gives you the results you want.

  I too having been pissed off that I cannot copy & paste a web page or e.mail 
into a word document and edit it as I used to be able to do. Apparently, FS 
doesn't want to listen since I've sent them several e.mails and to no avail 
since they think we all should do as they want us to do. So far any assistance 
I've received from them does not solve the problem, why don't they just work 
with users? This program is an expensive plus they suck us in for a $120- S/M 
fee each year, what do we get from that?

  I'm about to bite the bullet and can JAWS and purchase EYEs and see if that 
works any better.

  If you find out how we can copy & paste e.mails or web pages into a Word 
document with the cells and links and edit it, let me know, otherwise I'm done 
with donating to FS each year for their S/M !

    First, I use ctrl, plus shift, and end to select the text that I want.
    Then, I use ctrl plus c to copy to the cliff board.
    Then, I use ctrl plus v to paste in to microsoft Word.
    However, when I try to read the text, Jaws reads it as a table with some 
sort of uni-code.
    I just was not sure if there is something in the setting of Word that I 
might need to change.  (That is, the menus).
    The purpose of prayer is not to get what we want, 
    but to become what God wants.

      How are you copying the text?  Are you copying it by the page, by the 
line or a few words at a time?

        Hello,
        When I copy text from the internet and try to paste it in to Word, the 
text comes up in a table, how can I fix that?
