One point to note when using JAWS Find feature on Desktop screen is that it
places the JAWS cursor on the found item, you need to route PC cursor to
JAWS by pressing INSERT+NUMPAD + on desktop keyboard layout or INSERT+' on
laptop keyboard layout to select the found item on desktop.

Press CTRL+INSERT+F to use JAWS Find feature in majority of Windows
applications. It works on the Desktop screen as well.

>> Do the following to search to see if that is listed on this page. Type

>> "club sandwich" and press ENTER. If you started at the top of the page,

>> 4. Use the JAWS Say Word command (INSERT+NUMPAD 5). You should hear the 
>> word
>> "club" spoken.
>> 5. Use the JAWS Next Word command (INSERT+RIGHT ARROW). You should hear 
>> JAWS
>> say, "sandwich." JAWS moved you to the phrase right at the beginning of 
>> the
>> word "club."
>> 6. Press CTRL+HOME to move back to the top of the page.
>> 7. Open the JAWS Find dialog box again by pressing CTRL+F and search for 
>> the
>> word "town." You hear that the words around the word you searched for are
>> "sleepy
>> town of Innisport."
>> 8. Press the keystroke to repeat the Find command (F3). You hear that the

>> 9. Press F3 again and listen to the text you find.

>>
>> . CTRL+F to open the JAWS Find dialog box.
>> . F3 to repeat the search in the forward direction.
>> . SHIFT+F3 to repeat the search in the backward direction.
