Is this a gif that you have simply opened in AppleWorks? Or dragged/pasted
into an AW document?
When you view the gif in an AW document window or copy it to the clipboard,
it's just a collection of pixels. It's not a gif until you save it to file
in that format. So, if you open a gif, copy it, and paste it into another
document or application, you will need to specifically save it as a gif (not
possible in AppleWorks AFAIK).
To answer your request, this script uses the 'select menu item' command, and
may need to be adjusted accordingly if your version of AppleWorks is French
localised. You'll need to open a suitable document first, of course.
tell application "AppleWorks 6"
activate
select menu item "Select All" of menu "Edit"
copy to clipboard
end tell
