That helps perfectly! And it's an example of something I can very easily see a use for, in circumstances like the example and others. Thanks. In fact, maybe this would help for copying error messages that I can read but can't access normally, and also for copying something like the header information from the Properties tabs of information about an email message. Cool. Again, thanks for explaining. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Grimsby" <jimgrims@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, October 07, 2005 10:09 AM Subject: RE: Jaws key, control, w Hi, lets make this easy. Lets say you bring up the about dialog of a program. And you need to send the version number you are using in a email message. Then you use this command to load the about information in to the buffer and select the version number copy it to the clipboard paste it in to your message. There a good use of the feature. Jaws virtualizes the active window when this command is used.

I'd be grateful just for an example of a situation where you'd need it. For instance, you get some sort of message display or dialogue box on screen while Web surfing, but it's not within the focus of Jaws in the normal sense, because you can only read the actual Web page beneath it but not touch the dialogue or message, even with the Jaws cursor? In such a case, is thais a way to manage to read whatever's in that box? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bruce Toews" <dogriver@xxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, October 07, 2005 7:32 AM Subject: Re: Jaws key, control, w The key combination places the contents of the current window into the virtual buffer, which then allows you to move around through the text using your standard arrow keys and to select and copy the text. Offhand I don't know where info would be found in the help file, though I'm confident it's well-documented there. Try looking under virtual buffer.
