Hi,

  When I open a .ppt file on my Netbook, JAWS will read a whole list
of Slides when I arrow down like Slide 1 blah blah, Slide 2 blah
blah... To be able to read the contents in the file, I need to press
Function key 5 to launch the file as a Slide show.

Question:
  To move from 1 slide to another, one presses the Spacebar or the
Control pagedown right?
  When I press control pagedown, JAWS will always say the following,
"The entry effect is none, the slide advance is on a mouse click."
After that, I can read the next slide. I can move back the slide by
pressing Control Pageup.
  Moving the Spacebar also brings me to the next part of the slide or
a new slide. How do I go to previous slides then?
  However, I realised that both keystrokes will advance to the next
slide quite differently. If both keystrokes are supposedly the same,
why do I get different chunks of information, one reading more than
the other, when I pressed the different keystrokes?
  I hope I have not confused anyone.
  Oh, I am using JAWS 9 on my XP Home Netbook if that's important.
  Thank you for any help.

Regards,
Siew Ling
