Doug. I'm looking to maintain the current use of the insert+numpad keys so I
need that numpad insert key available to me.
I was also hoping to amplify the jaws commands by creating new commands
using CapsLock key combinations.
In other words, I was hoping to take jaws internet explorer commands and
reroute them to a caps lock and numpad key combination. The ultimate goal is
to navigate the internet using my most commonly used commands via the
numpad--a type of third layer for numpad. First layer is numbers, second
layer is the commonly used default jaws numpad commands, and third layer is
my Capslock + numpad key combinations. With 17 new commands, and remapping
the right arrow to become a caps lock key, I'm thinking I can navigate
WebPages using just my right hand. Yes, very unconventional but for me it
will make life easier as I will be able to zip around WebPages with one
hand. If this can be done in a different way please convey.

I may well have missed something here, but what's the reason you don't
just use "JAWSKey" instead of "Capslock" in your key names? If your
JAWSKey is set to be Capslock, that should work.
Also, though I favor putting assignments in Common Keys, you might
check if there's something in Desktop Keys that's overriding your new
command entries.

The problem with your script is the caps lock key is already assigned as the
Jaws key for a laptop. That will cause a conflict since the caps lock has
already been assigned.
If you want that key to work, you'll have to work on getting the pass key
through to be included in the script as well.
I don't know that using that will work either, but I know I've had trouble
assigning a key that had already been used in other scripts.

Well, I followed Don's instructions and no luck. Here's what I did using my
desktop computer and normal 104 key Keyboard:
1. I cracked open the internet explorer.jkm file by finding it within the
enu folder with the 1800+ files. I opened it up with notepad.
2. I worked my way over to the [common section.
3. I inserted the following experimental keyboard commands at the top of the
list of commands.
CapsLock+End=MoveToNextNonLinkText
CapsLock+Home=MoveToPriorNonLinkText
CapsLock+PageUp=GoBack
CapsLock+PageDown=GoForward
4. I hit alt plus F4 to close and I saved the changes.
5. I unloaded and reloaded jaws for good measure.
6. I tried my new commands and they did not work. Think I already mentioned
I'm using a desktop keyboard and the capslock key.
Any suggestions?
Andre

Think that's related to using either the numpad insert (jaws) key, or the
other, normal insert key.
That would most likely relate to the jaws key being able to be reassigned to
something like the capsLock key as well.
Stay well

don and others. I'm reading through the internet explorer.jkm file using
notepad. I am coming across this info:
[common Keys]
Insert+F7=SelectALink
JAWSKey+F7=SelectALink
Insert+F6=SelectAHeading
JAWSKey+F6=SelectAHeading
Why are keyboard commands specified twice using the "insert" and "jawsKey"
designations? why not use just the single "Insert+" commands?
