As a user of a variety of laptops, I used to find it difficult to remember which key did what on which machine. Once I learned that by pressing the Function key, you are turning on the num pad. So if you have someone review with you the lay out of the embedded num pad on your laptop, and set your JAWS keyboard setting to Desktop, you don't have to worry about having to convert desktop keyboard commands to laptop keyboard commands. The down side of doing this is that for some multiple key commands you have to be very flexible, or grow an extra finger or two.

Hi, Sorry I should have said this would invoke the virtual cursor again. My clumsy comment was to cover laptops which usually use different keystrokes from desktops.----- Original Message ----- From: "Roger Levine" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, August 09, 2006 11:55 AM Subject: Re: [jaws-users] Turning off forms mode. > Hi, > On a laptop you can use either the "function key plus slash or the > Jaws key plus semicolon depending on your brand of laptop.
