Hi Mel. I've fooled around with the right mouse button lock and attempted to
select a part of the text using the shift and down arrow key, but I've not
had any luck. Might be a possible bug here. Did you ever try the F8 key
which copies elements and or tables etc within IE?

Hi Peter,

This isn't quite what I wanted to do.  I was trying to highlight an area
of the screen which a sighted person did successfully with the mouse.
However, when switching to JAWS cursor which is necessary to get to that
area, I don't seem to be able to highlight using the keyboard.  I was
therefore looking for the equivalent to click and drag.

Many thanks anyway.

Mel

Control plus jaws key plus numpad slash allows drag and drop.

Hi All,

Can anyone tell me the JAWS equivalent for click and drag?  I need to use
this to highlight a section of the screen which the PC cursor does not go
to.

Thanks - Mel
