I just pressed that key combination after selecting text and it worked
perfectly. I'm assuming that it works differently on different machines.

Hi yard bird the key states that it reads the selected or highlighted text on the screen. So there for if the line of text is not selected it will inform you that nothing is selected. Very simple hope that helps.

That doesn't work for me. I just copied your line below to the clipboard. Then I pressed those keys. Jaws said "text not selected." Of course, what I wanted had nothing to do with that; I think it was a message I'd have gotten if I'd pressed control C to copy to clipboard but hadn't selected
anything.

ofRich,
What I'm referring to is a feature that I think appeared with the releaseJaws 7.0. It's some sort of trick whereby you can pile up things in the clipboard instead of the clipboard being cleared each time you copy something new into it. Then there are special tricks for pasting
this,the extended contents into a destination. I forget exactly how to do allbut it's been discussed a number of times over the months. I tried it
out once to learn how to use the feature, but never wound up using it thereafter, so I forget exactly how the whole deal works.
More to the point, I never understood if this was a special capability
itwritten into Jaws modifying the function of the Windows clipboard, or ifwas in fact a proprietary clipboard that's actually part of Jaws. I never heard this explained to my satisfaction. Sorry if I misled you by my remarks.
I still want to know what the keystroke is for reading the contents of
athe clipboard, whatever the answer to my confusion about there being one clipboard or two.
Hope that's more clear. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Richard Sherman" <squirman@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2006 7:47 PM Subject: Re: jaws keystroke to see contents of Clipboard
Hi Yardbird, I always thought that there was only the windows clipboard. You mentionedcustom jaws clipboard. What is this?
Thanks for the help.

Did anyone ever answer that question, which someone asked recently?
regularAnd if not, and you do, please specify whether you're referring to the------Windows clipboard, or the custom Jaws clipboard, or both.
Thanks.
