Bob, Thanks for the update. I also tried what you did and got the same result.

I originally asked the question because a program I found with google required a shift right click to paste the full path into the clipboard. Before downloading copypath, I went into the default script, found the script for shift left click and reproduced it changing "left" to "right". To my surprise, it compiled fine. But when I tried it out I got an "unknown function called" error. Rather than chase that down--assuming I could find it--I found copypath, ran it and am happy. I think the answer to your question is in the above paragraph somewhere. <lol> Bob "Those who are too smart to engage in politics are punished by being governed by those who are dumber."

Elf, I use copyPath all the time exactly as you've described. However I fail to see how it relates to the original question as to how to emulate a Shift+Right Mouse Button using JAWS and a standard computer keyboard. What am I missing here, Elf?

Hi Inthane; What is the alternative program you mentioned to avoid that awkward mouse click trouble? I didn't notice any programs mentioned in this email. Thanks much. Take care.

Ok. Thanks folks. I tried the shift applications key and jaws reported "shift applications" but it didn't bring up the expected menu. Shift numpad star (I'm using a desktop) gave me a little bing sound (meaning "don't do that") and jaws said "star". So I conclude you can't do it with jaws. Too bad. Thanks for the help.

As far as I can see, the jaws script language has a shift left mouse click, but no right click with shift. It says in the description for shift left click that it selects contiguous files in a list or edit box. This sounds like shift down arrow or up arrow.

He's wanting the right mouse button click with shift, not the movement.

Okay I downloaded a freeware package to copy the full filepath to the clipboard. The only thing is, in order to do this I have to do a shift right mouse click on the filename in windows explorer. Does anyone know how to do a shift right mouse click with jaws? Thanks. Bob
