The PC cursor is the equivalent of the insertion point, or the carat. Whenever the focus changes, for example when you enter a menu bar with the alt key, the PC cursor moves to that location. The JAWS cursor, on the other hand, imitates and actually causes, the mouse pointer to move everytime you arrow with the JAWS cursor. It also offers commands to simulate a left and right click, which can also be used for double clicking. You can also use commands to drag and drop by locking a mouse button down, moving to another part of the window, then unllocking it. Hope this helps.

     Hi all, this is Michelle White writing in.  I am a fairly new user to Jaws 
or at least on my own computer and I was wondering if someone can tell me the 
difference between the Jaws curser and the PC curser and again, sorry for my 
ignorance.  Any help is appreciated.  Take care.
