Once you use Alt + D, hit shift + jaws key + numpad downarrow, and it'll tell you what's selected as such, since I'm pretty sure that control automatically selects it's contents when getting focus.

I am aware that ALT plus D should highlight the address bar but all I
get is a messege that says to set the value to zero or enter text.  I
then try to control plus shift plus right arrow to highlight and there
is nothing there to highlight.  Am I doing something wrong
 Thanks Charline

Since these are Windows commands, they should work with all versions of
JAWS, including JAWS 10.  Sometimes, JAWS fails to speak when you execute
the Copy command, Control-C. However, the highlighted text has been
successfully copied to the clipboard nevertheless. You can verify this by
reading the clipboard with Insert-Windows key-X. And Alt-D will still
highlight the Address Bar in JAWS 10, just like it does in earlier versions
of JAWS.

Dear List Members
I am currently using JFW 10, I previously in JFW 9  I was able to use
the keystrokes ALT plus D to highlight the address line and then use
control plus C to copy to my clipboard, but seem to have lost this
ability in JFW 10. Is there different keystrokes to 'highlight' and to
'copy' in JFW 10??
     Thanks in advance! Hope this isn't too convoluted!
