Route the JAWS cursor to the PC or virtual PC cursor.

  Hi again,

  This is what I am attempting to do but everytime I go to use the left or 
right click numpad buttons, jaws clicks where the cursor is on the screen, not 
where I've navigated to with the PC cursor. It's like jaws itself isn't in sync 
with where I want the mouse to navigate to.

  You should navigate to where you want to click with the Jaws cursor and use 
the left mouse button on the numpad to click on what you want.
  The easiest way to deal with the system tray is hold down the  Jaws key and 
hit F 11. Then you can arrow through and enter on the items.

  Hey everyone,

  You can tell I have a new computer because the questions keep coming!

  When I try and use the numpad as the mouse I run into a problem. Instead of 
clicking where I navigate to using the numpad, the left mouse button on the
  numpad clicks where the cursor from the actual mouse is on the screen. This 
makes it impossible to access icons from my system tray and often results in
  me clicking on the desktop or an open window instead.

  Any ideas as to how this can be fixed? Thanks in advance!

  -Marc
