Hi David,

You can copy and paste files, but if you want to move them to another
location, try using Greg Kearney's "Move" automator action from:

http://w3.wmcnet.org/vo/workflows/

I'll paste in an old description from the forums:

Move attempts to deal with the problems that blind users face with drag and
drop. Move will move the selected items in the finder to a choosen
directory. It will then open that directory and make it the front most
window in the Finder. Selecting the directory is done with a standard put
file dialog. To install Move open it with Automator and then choose the
"Save as Plugin..." option of Automators "file" menu be sure that the
application popup menu is set to "Finder".

To move files, select them in Finder, then bring up the contextual
menu (VO-keys-shift-M). Press "mo" (m-o) to take you directly to the "More" 
menu item. Navigate right to open the sub-menu which will land you on the 
"Automator" item. Navigate right again to open the Automator sub-menu.
Navigate down to choose the "Move" Automator workflow. and press return.
Choose the new folder location in the FInder-like window that appears.

Hope this helps.

Esther
