Hi.

It doesn't matter which application, the result is the same whatever I'm doing.

Cheers
Darren

  Hi Darren,

   

  You don’t say which application you are using, but try selecting the text as 
usual, then choose Copy from the edit menu.  If that works, then the issue is 
with the JAWS copy command.  

   

  Regards.

  Hi folks.

  Here's an issue I've not come across before.

  I've got a new Windows 7 system with Jaws 10 and 11.

  For some reason, I'm not able to select individual words and copy them to 
  the clipboard.

  I can copy entire lines, or from the cursor to the end of the line, but the 
  usual select word and Control C just results in the message "Nothing 
  Selected".

  What should I be checking?

  Many thanks in advance.

  Cheers
  Darren
