If you go to Settings in ZoomText and then select Hotkeys you  will find a
window in which you can review the descriptions of hotkeys. If necessary you
can also alter  the Hotkey combinations .

I am, however, unaware of any command that will jump you to an edit field.
The screenreader which came with Zoomtext 8 and 9 at least, the versions I
have used, is very basic. 

If you want some proper screen reading functionality with Zoomtext I suggest
you try using NVDA with Zoomtext speech turned off.  I have done this in the
past with Jaws with reasonable success.  Most NVDA key commands are
identical to Jaws. The only real key conflict  which cause annoyance is that
Zoomtext grabs the use of the alt right arrow key combination. If you want
to go back one level you need to use the backspace key instead. I think you
will find NVDA will be able to use the Neospeech voices which come with
Zoomtext.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Zoom Text question

My sister-in-law is using the latest version of Zoom Text.  Is there a list
of hot keys she can use?  Specifically, for moving to an Edit field, instead
of always looking for it.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Wayne
