Robert, that is very strange indeed! Okay do you use a laptop or a desktop? Do you have an ATI video card installed? What verbosity level do you use? I mean if you use a verbosity level that doesn't say selected, I bet you have probably still tried to copy some text and paste it?

Debbie, You have come accross a problem that has pleagued me for months. It is, that I can't use shift down arrow to select a line on a web page or in an email. Shift with up arrow, or end, or home do not work either. The only thing that will select for me is control A for the entire page. I am using Jaws 6 with XP home. Would you have any thoughts about why this problem exists. Thanks in advance for your answer, good or bad.
