Hi JM, I was kidding / saying that tongue in cheek. And yes, those are commands that are widely used, but I said that as a reminder not only for Adrian, but for those that the, F8, command fails for as well.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Arguing with a woman is like reading a software license agreement.

Selecting from the beginning of the line to the end: Shift + End / 1 on the NumPad. Selecting more than 1 line of text, if the sentence is more than 1 line: Hold the Shift key down while arrowing up or down until you have selected/highlighted the lines you want. Take care.

I guess it means more frequent rebooting. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Adrian Spratt Sent: Tuesday, February 27, 2018 10:04 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [JAWS-Users] How to select a sentence in Word 2016 while using JAWS Hi. Using Word 2010, I became dependent on the F8 key to select a sentence. It doesn't work in 2016. At Google, I find a control-mouse click instruction, but using the JAWS simulated mouse, it doesn't work. Has anyone found an alternative keyboard command buried in Word 2016 for this operation?
