Thanks everyone for your input. I agree folks shift enter and control shift enter does the job, but my point was, as Benjamin pointed, that when using the links list I think it's more convenient to have these added two buttons in place. But fair enough if you think that I'm being a little lazy and no need for this modification *smile*. To be honest what really bugs me that when I ever invoke the application key to say, open in a new window or more likely to save target as, the Jaws focus is almost never on target if I'm browsing in any way other than using the move to link button in the links list dialog. And that is definitely inconvenient and time consuming.
Any thoughts on my last point? Would be interested to hear from WE users too. 

Cheers,
Amro

Hi Dave,

Yep that is right.  I thought the original poster said they got there with
the links list. I was really trying to say there is no need to change that if they are happy with it, but shift enter will open in a new window, as you 
say, and IE command, not a screen reader command.

All the best

Steve

Hi, for clarity, shift plus enter opens a link in a new window full stop.
That is an IE command, so no need even for the links list, you can navigate 
there any way yu like.

Cheers
