[JAWSLite] Re: Text selection

That I do know.
The problem is that, if, for example, I was in a large text file containing something around 30 short stories, and I wanted to select one specific one, somewhere in the middle, I could easily get to the start of it by doing a search for the story number, or the chapter no. or something, but then, I'd either have to try hitting page down, while holding in the shift key, and hope that I didn't get too far without realising where I was, or I'd have to go down one line at a time for ages until I got to where I actually wanted to be. 

Anyway, it's good that all you guys are passing on suggestions.

Cheers

Jacob

You can also hold down ctrl+shift, and press the end key, and it will select all the text in one fowl swoop. ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Partrick" <dpartrick@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I use control and shift for selecting blocks of text.  If you start with
your cursor at the beginning, then hold shift and arrow right, you will
select a block, one character at at time.  if you hold down control and
shift and arrow right, you will select a word at a time and if you use down arrow, you will select a line at a time. Of course it works in reverse with 
left and up arrows.

Hope that helps.
