Well, Jaws does have an append to clipboard function. First u do a copy, then the appendToClipBoard. I think if it were I, here's what I'd do. I'd make a variable to hold the fields, i.e., sAreacode, SPhone. I'd capture them to the variable however u can, then I'd say copytoClipBoard(Sareacode) AppendToClipboard(sPhone, true) On 12/19/11, dave grossoehme <davegross1@xxxxxxx> wrote: > Tom try copying the phone number nad area code to your notepad.
