Mike, FS must know all about this, as the problems are as old as the feature itself.

But, it doesn't work very consistently, so I found unpinning items, & repinning them in the order I want them to be in to be faster than getting frustrated with trying to get drag & drop to work.

I'm fairly stubborn, but gave up on that feature back in the 1990's. Ted From: Mike B.

Use the key strokes, (CTRL+INSERT+NUM PAD SLASH) for Drag and Drop . This is used to drag items from one location and drop them in another. Position the JAWS Cursor on the item you wish to move and press CTRL+INSERT+NUM PAD SLASH. You can leave the JAWS Cursor active, or you can switch to the PC Cursor. JAWS will keep speaking as you navigate. Once you have positioned the JAWS or PC Cursor in the location to which you would like to move the item, press CTRL+INSERT+NUM PAD SLASH again, and the item will be moved to the position of the active cursor.

Most of the questions are radio buttons and links. I've run into a Match the right column with the left column by drag and drop. I'm stumped. Anyone have any ideas? I can get JAWS to announce the items in each column, but haven't figured out a way to select one and place on another. I suspect this is not attainable, but before I throw in the towel, I thought I'd check here. Thanks in advance, Keith
