Do the following;

In jaws 12 and not earlier
At the start of the area you wish to work with
Control + windows key + k, this will put a place mark at this point.
Now, move curser to the end of the text you wish to mark / work with and do
a insert + spacebar + m this selects the area from the place mark to the end
place mark
Now you can copy past and other things to this area.
