>>You can do what you want with this ScriptTip:
>>ScriptTip#110: CopyTextFromScreen.
>>Synopsis: Copys specified text from screen.

>>
>>Remarks: JFW has a couple of functions that will retrieve
>>certain text from the screen, and hold it in a buffer, ready for use in
>>some other function/script. These functions are GetCharacter(),
>>GetWord(), GetLine(), and GetWindowText().
>>Their names pretty much describe the amount of text they will retrieve
from
>>the current cursor's position on the screen, and they are presented in a
>>menu that you can choose from. They are neat for grabbing items like
>>names, phone numbers, web site addresses, etc!
>>This script uses the CopyToClipboard() script to place the desired text
>>onto the clipboard for pasting into a suitable place.
>>It is important to note that any material already in the clipboard gets
>>replaced by this script!
>>
>>Example: Have you ever wanted to grab a phone number from the
>>screen, or an internet address, or e-mail address, and wasn't in an edit
>>session where you could mark the desired text and copy it to the
clipboard?
>>This script will allow you to grab the text, even if you are not in an
edit
>>session, where the Copy, Cut, and Paste options within the Edit menu are
>>not available!
>>For example, you're in an application that displays the phone number to
the
>>developer's Technical Support department, or the URL to their Support web
>>site, and want to save that info for later referencing, you could move to
>>the desired text with one of the Jaws cursors, and invoke the
>>GrabTextFromScreen script to write that text to the Windows clipboard.
You
>>can then paste that info to a safe place later.
>>
>>How much material you can save is dependent upon the menu item you select,
>>once you've moved the PC, Jaws, or Invisible cursor to the target text,
and
>>the hotkey for this script is pressed.
>>We'll want this script available, regardless of what application is
>>running, so we'll place it into the Default.jss script file.
>>
>>Compatibility: JFW3.2 and higher.
>>
>>--------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>1. Hit Control+Shift+0 to launch the Script Manager with the
>> default.jss file loaded into the editor.
>> 2. Hit Control+End to reach the bottom of this file, then hit Enter a
>> few times to give yourself room to work.
>>3. Type in, or cut and paste, the following script:
>>
>>;Grabs text from screen and writes it to clipboard.
>>
>>Script CopyTextFromScreen ()
>>Var ;create a couple variables to hold the text.
>>string Char, ; will hold the current character at the cursor.
>>string Word, ;will hold the current word.
>>string Line, ;will hold the current line.
>>string Window, ;will hold current window's text.
>>String MyMenu, ;text for menu display.
>>Int index ; will hold menu item number.
>>;First, assign the text at the current active cursor's position
>>;to the appropriate variables.
>>let Char=GetCharacter()
>>let Word=GetWord()
>>let Line=GetLine()
>>let Window=GetWindowText(GetFocus(),FALSE)
>>;Now, create menu.
>>let MyMenu="|Character" +
>>"|Word" +
>>"|Line" +
>>"|Current window"
>>Let index=DlgSelectItemInList (MyMenu, "Copy text from screen menu",
False)
>>;Ok, take the menu item you selected and run it through these condition
>>;statements to execute the appropriate associated tasks!
>>If (index==1) then ;You want to save just a single character?
>>CopyToClipboard (Char) ;Ok, put that character onto the clipboard.
>>Say(Char,ot_string) ;Announce what you just saved!
>>ElIf (index==2 ) then ;You want to save just the current word?
>>CopyToClipboard (Word) ;Ok, place it onto the clipboard,
>>Say(Word,ot_string) ;and announce that word.
>>ElIf (index==3 ) then ;You want to save the current line?
>>CopyToClipboard (Line) ;Ok, place that line onto the clipboard,
>>Say(Line,ot_string) ;and announce the line.
>>ElIf (index==4 ) then ;So you want the entire window?
>>CopyToClipboard (Window) ;Ok, place it onto the clipboard,
>>Say(Window,ot_string) ;and announce the window.
>>EndIf
>>EndScript
>>
>>
>>4) While in this script, hit Control+D to edit it's properties.
>>5) Tab down through the fields, making sure that the "Can be assigned to
>>key.." is checked, and fill in the "Synopsis:" and "Description:" fields.
>>6) Tab to the "Assign to keystroke..." field and hit whatever key
>>combination you want to use to trigger this script, such as Alt+Control+G.
>>7) Tab to, then select Ok, and when back in the editor, hit Control+S to
>>compile the modifications.
>>
>>You may need to recycle JFW from memory before the changes are activated.

>>Hope this helps!
