Hi everyone,
To select files in Explorer or any folder with lots of files:
Note: in the event your files are not in a list view simply press Alt V to
go to the view menu then press the letter L for List view.
1. Go to a folder like your MP3 files folder then try any of the following:
2. to select from the current file to end of list press Shift + end key.
3. To select from current file to the top of the list press shift + home
key.
4. To select files in a sequential order meaning next, next, next, press
shift + down arrow repeatedly. This works for previous files too by pressing
shift up arrow repeatedly.
5. To select files that are not in order go to the top of the list, press
and hold the control key, then down arrow through your files. When you come
across a file you want to select, press the spacebar.
6. In jaws you can press shift + jaws key + down arrow and jaws will tell
you the names of the files you have selected, when this command works as it
should that is.
7. You can now press control + C to copy or control X to cut.

Rick,
I'd like to know how to select contiguous and noncontiguous files using
the keyboard for myself. Not sure what the other fellow (Mike) was looking
for though. This will be helpful for me too.

Mike,
Are you wanting to know how to do this with a mouse,
or using the keyboard?

Hi Scorpio,
I was under the impression that you could hold down the left mouse button
&
scroll down the list like you would for selecting text. Thank you very
much
for getting me straightened out on this! Take care.
Mike

Hi Mike,
The person has to press and hold down the control key, then click on the
files as they move down the list.
Once all the files are selected, they can press the applications key, or
right click the right right mouse button on any of the files, to get the
context menu, or, if they're copying or moving the files, press the
keystrokes as needed.
Hope this helps.
Scorpio
