My laptop also lacks an applications key. Shift-F10 is a life saver.

George,
 
Yes on web pages I've definitely noticed a difference between a right mouse
click and the Apps key, but again never thought to see what Shift+f10 does.
 
However ancillary to this is that my next laptop will not have an
Applications key so I'll definitely get used to the Shift+f10 key and see
what transpires.

Dave,
 
You may be right, but not necessarily. Although I've always understood that
shift-F10 "emulates," as you say, the applications key, I have encountered
exceptions where I can find commands using shift-F10 that didn't show up
when I pressed the applications key at the same point in the same
application. Sorry, I can't give you an example, but ever since I
encountered this occasional disparity, I try shift-F10 if the applications
key doesn't give me what I want. It rarely works, but working once or twice
is enough.

Anthony,
 
Actually Shift+F10 emulates the Application key on a standard keyboard (just
right of the right-hand Alt button) and brings up the same context menu as
does a right mouse click. I suspect that earlier you didn't have the mouse
(JAWS cursor) in the correct spot when you did a right click.
 
Sounds like you got it solved.

Hi I just found out how to do this shift f10 is about asgood as a right
mouse click and it allowed me to send it to the list desired.

From within your contact list:
Scroll down until you are on the contact you wish to add to another mail
list.
Right mouse click on the desired contact and scroll through the resulting
list of actions until you find "copy contact to"
Scroll through that list until you find the mail list you wish to add the
contact to and then hit enter.
Done.

Hi folks.  Freedom Scientific technical support suggested I join this list
as they are not sure how to solve this problem.  I am using Jaws 12 the
latest version and windows 7 with Windows live mail.  I am trying to add an
address from my all contacts list to another separate email list.  Any help
would be appreciated in how to accomplish this.
 
Thanks.
