Okay, thanks for the reminder. I was simply trying to make the change within Jaws itself.
Thanks.

Well, I did the same thing in Jaws 18 and came up with zero search results, after writing the word Copy in the search box.

Hi there! I solved my issue by pressing JAWS key plus the letter V to activate the quick settings. I then put the word copy in the search box. There are two options that come up for me. I select the option to copy using the Virtual cursor You may hear full content using on screen highlight. Just press the spacebar to switch to the virtual cursor. Hope this helps! -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of David Pearson Sent: Tuesday, June 27, 2017 6:53 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS not copying text from a web-site. I have this same exact problem when I try to copy text from a library program. Text articles will be on the screen and when I select all jaws says nothing, so when I copy it says nothing, when I paste nothing is there. This forces me to go back to using window eyes and I would rather use just one screen reader. At 06:59 AM 6/27/2017, you wrote: >Good morning all!
