Hi all,


David, thanks for the link to your blog post. I forgot about the Jaws 
command for appending information to the clipboard. Thanks for sharing 
the Ins+windows+c command and for telling us about what's available to 
window-Eyes users.


Melita, if you're a Jaws user running XP, I suspect you also have an 
earlier version of the screen reader. I used to use the Jaws Append to 
Clipboard command a lot. Then it changed, and I had trouble remembering 
the new command until I forgot it altogether. I'm bringing it up in case 
the command David mentions doesn't work for you. I want to say the 
original command was just Windows+c, but I'm not sure.


Ciao
