Hello Nic and Peggy, Thank you both for this help. I now understand and it is working beautifully.
Have a great day.

You two-finger double tap at the top to go to the menu bar, two-finger double tap right to go to the Window Chooser, two-finger double tap left to bring up Application Chooser and two-finger double tap bottom to go to the Dock. A good idea if you want to get the gestures down is to turn on keyboard help when the trackpad is on.
