Hi Linda.

Yes, I'm already doing shift control right arrow.
Jaws isn't even echoing back what I'm trying to select, which tells me that it isn't being highlighted correctly. 

Thank you very much for replying in any case.

Cheers
Darren

Hello Darren
Go to the word you want using control cursor left/right, once on the word press shif + control + cursor right and then use the copy command.
I have tried this in XP and 7 both on Jaws 10 and 11. However, if I go to the word with using control plus cursor and then select the copy command, I get the same result as you report. 

Hope this helps and apologies if you are already doing this!

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
