Dear Miss Vicky,
I am using a logitech wireless keyboard with jaws just now. Mine
still has all the keys, however.
You may want to look for a keyboard remapping utility. Mr. Scott aka
"Arizona Blue' back on 4tp talked about such a keyboard mapping
utility. I think the one he used and recommended was called
"keytweak". I do not remember the home page for it but consulting
your favorite search engine should turn this up.
jaws has an inbuilt utility called "keyboard manager" with which you
can reassign jaws specific keyboard shortcuts. I am not aware,
however, of this being able to remap windows keys.
the "shift+f10" key combo still works for me to bring up the context
menu. this is a windows keyboard shortcut and should work independent
of your jaws version or, indeed, independent of what screenreader you use.
enjoy that new keyboard and the freedom from being tied to a wire!

I will be getting a Logitech Wireless keyboard, solar 750. This particular
keyboard doesn't have an application key, so I will need to use the shift
F10. I know in older versions of JAWS you could reroute certain key commands
to other keys. For example, I moved my battery status indication so that it
spoke whenever I pressed the grave accent key. I can't remember how to do
this in JAWS and I'm wondering if it can even be done with the shift f10.
I'm using JAWS 11 and want to make that shift f10 keystroke work by pressing
a single key. Can it be done? If so, how.
Thanks.
Vicki
