I'm not sure.  On the window I get to open, it says click here for a list of
JAWS hot keys.  I have no idea, however, what happens in other applications
or where the information is being drawn from.  I am going to contact FS just
to see what they say.  I'll let you know what I find out.

Are these hot keys Jaws or Windows hot keys?

Thanks for the info!  I have found that if I open the application (in my
case, Windows Live), and press JAWS key + F1, a window comes up.  If I then
press Tab, I hear a link announced "Click here for a list of JAWS hot keys."
The problem is that nothing happens when I click on this link.  The window
just goes away.  I haven't tried this on other programs, but intend to.

 

Thanks again!

Jerry

Hello,

 

I found some hot keys when I pressed alt and arrowed down through the
various menus.

Hello!

 

I keep hearing that Windows Live Messenger and other programs are very JAWS
friendly, how can I learn the "secret keys" to use JAWS with such programs?
I found the recent thread on Live very informative and wondered how these
keys were found.  Is there a cheat sheet somewhere I'm missing?

 

All help is appreciated!

Jerry
