Kimsan,
I will practice some more and will get it eventually.
It did make sense, if you start from a 'Period' , then press shift + home,
then from a blank line or space.
If, it does not work, "I'll bee BACK!"

Maybe, then it will copy & paste.
 Sorry, I think I didn't perform your steps correctly, but control +
spacebar read, 'Unselected.' 

Hey, I am not going to sit in front of this computer and not get involve on
what is posted like the other members that I never hear them question or add
their 2 cents, they just ask questions only and nothing else and just press
the delete key, it's like they takeapples from the tree, but never share one
thing.
I am here to learn what ever and in the process along the line, you're going
to be corrected and spanked!
I can handle itbut in the long run, I'm going to be smarter at jaws, I
hope...

Adios Holmes,
                                Jorge

Jorge:
I normally just do CTRL shift home, to select from the current location to
the top, but Dennies solution does work, at least for me.
Where is your cursor located when you perform the shift home command.  I
placed mine after the period of a sentence, then did shift home and verified
the text selection and it worked.
When the cursor is placed on a blank spot, it did not work.

Hi David,
Your steps don't seem to work here,
I practice a couple times after selecting to copy and it pasted nothing.
Using wind7 & J14 + 2013.
It sounded interesting, maybe Judy & Tally got it to work.

                                Jorge

Hi Judy & Tallie,
to select roughly half the files in a folder:
1. select a file roughly half way down the list of files.
2. press shift + home. This selects all the files from the originally
selected file to the first file. (alternatively use shift + end to select
all the files from he originally selected file to the last file.)

Hi, list, At work we download tons of books from BARD and have folders
broken down by db numbers on a network drive. One of these folders has
gotten too large; it takes me too long to locate a certain book. I want to
make two folders instead of one and have half the files in each folder.
Again these are files on a network drive. Is there a relatively painless way
to select a large number of files and move them into a new folder? To do it
a couple at a time would take forever. Thanks in advance.  Judy & Tallie
