Hmm.  Okay.  I work extensively in Word every day and don't think of that as 
a problem situation.  I guess my needs aren't the same.  Thanks for 
explaining

Belatedly, I understood that.  Can anyone explain what the purpose of this
idea is?  I wouldn't ordinarily care or think about something like this in
relation to anything I do every day on the computer.  In what sort of
situation would this trick be necessary?  I'm really mystified by this
apparent power-user thing.  Thanks.

And that moves the PC cursor yard.  They don't want to move the PC cursor.

So far as I'm accustomed to doing, it's just either pres the up arrow key on
the num pad (the 8) to read the line above where you are, or the down arrow
key on the num pad (2) to read the line below.

Subject: reading prior or next line without moving pc cursor


Hi. My wife is taking a jaws test for a job.  There are 2 questions that I
can not find the answers to.  They both ask the key strokes to read the
prior line or next line without moving the pc cursor.  I know of no key
stroke to do this without resorting to using the jaws cursor.  Is there such
a keystroke?

Many thanks
phil
