Could be something as simple as holding the shift key then letting up then
holding it down again. I don't know if that is what is happening but that
would
cause the behavior you describe.

Subject: A highlighting Problem...
> I need some help JFW List Serve Members & F.S.
> I am having a lot of difficulty highlighting more than just one word at a
time. When I attempt to highlight a second or third word, the highlighting
begins to reverse itself. What I mean is instead of having two Words
highlighted, the second one will not highlight? What I have to do is just
highlight an entire sentence, or line of text, then paste? This problem
happens
in various programs, MS Word, MS Excel, MS Outlook, as well as MS Outlook
Express. Has anyone else had problems like this? Has anyone brought this
to
the attention of Freedom Scientific (FS)? If they did make F.S. aware of
this ,
what did F.S. say to do?
>
> A second problem happens as well than just keeping more than one word
highlighted. When I highlight a word, JFW does not speak aloud what words,
or
words I am attempting to highlight? Lastly, when I highlight an entire line
of
text, and hit a control, c, JAWS says, "no text highlighted", but when I
paste,
everything that I highlighted is pasted where I placed the marker.

same difficulty in the previous version as well. Any and all assistance
would
be greatly appreciated.
