The sole purpose of control-a is to select the entire document. If the problem is that you're finding JAWS starts reading the selected text but a paste-and-copy key sequence doesn't transfer the entire document to a new location, my guess is that you're moving too quickly. When I select all with control-a, I wait a heartbeat or two before pressing the control-c copy command. It never fails, so long as I pause after control-a.
----- Original Message ----- From: "Judith Bron" <jbron@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Christopher, Where do I find the "select all script"? Thanks! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christopher Hallsworth" <chrishallsworth@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>Judith, I suppose you could modify the "SelectAll" script so that JAWS speaks the message when the key is pressed, but that's all I can think of for now. May play around with that script to see if I can do it and post the code to the scripting list that I'm on, which, if you're not on already, can be subscribed through the Blind Programming site (http://www.blindprogramming.com). Hope that helps. On Thu, 19 Apr 2007 20:31:03 -0400, "Judith Bron" <jbron@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> said: Is there a keystroke that would announce when someone selects an entire document? Thanks, Judith
