Rebecca,
I don't use a couple of the keys you're looking for very often, so I'll
leave it to Debbie or someone else to point them out. But here's something
you may find useful to know. If you press Insert 1 (on the num row), you'll
hear Jaws say "on," and then any key you press will be identified until you
toggle this command off by pressing Insert 1 again, whereupon the keys will
become normally active again. A few keys don't identify themselves, but
nothing you don't know already, like the shift key or the control key.
Hope this helps.

Hi guys.
Thank you so much for this.
Now where is the numpad slash and the insert key I need to use?
I'm trying to find them and can't. This is for my job so I very much
appreciate everybody's help.

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
CTRL+INSERT+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.
But if you can use copy and paste, I would use that instead of trying to
drag and drop.
The problem with drag and drop is both the place you are dragging from
and the place you are dragging to, both have to be visible. By visible
I don't mean you have to be able to see them, grin, I mean they have to
be on the same screen. Maybe I can give an example to explain what I
mean.
Say I open my computer and the c drive. If I select a folder and press
the drag and drop keystroke, then I can arrow down to another folder and
repeat the drag and drop keystroke. Jaws will drag it and place it
inside of the folder I dragged it to. But say I open that folder and I
select a folder.
I think backspace to be back at the main level. If I press the drag and
drop keystroke again, it will say the object can't be found. Another
example. If two listboxes are on the same screen one on the right, one
on the left, you should be able to drag and drop from one to another.
But if you try to drag and drop something and then go to another window
of another application or something like that, jaws won't do it and will
say the object can't be found and cancel the drag and drop operation .
I hope that makes some sense, any sense at all, ha ha.
What program are you trying to drag and drop in?
Debbie
