Hi, There have been some code changes to the Symbian feature pack used on the N86. All I can think of if the copying works in non-edit modes there and not on previous phones is that somehow Talks is able to access the text by a method not present in the earlier phones. It's almost like how things used to be before desktop screen readers improved. For a long time the same held true there, yet now you can copy/paste text out of dialog boxes, and pretty much anywhere. Maybe this will be fixed in a future update. Having said that the way phones are advancing technologically, one hopes this will not be so far into the future that support for our present phones ceases. _______________________________________ Have a pleasant day, Kind Regards and Best Wishes, Hussein.
