Hi Lennie, Thank you very much. This "alt plus delete" gives me the measurements and position of the active cursor and is a great help for determining the position of the text. Is there a way in which one can determine the column number at which centred text starts?
Thanks for all the help from the JAWS users!!!

The delete key is next to the insert key on the NumPad and numlock is off.
