Yes, it does. I did it with Office 2010 on XP SP3.

Does that also work in Word 2010? I have a friend who now has Windows 7 and Office 2010.

Press F8 to turn on selection mode, and then press F8 once to select a word, twice to select a sentence, three times to select a paragraph, or four times
to select the document. Press ESC to turn off the selection mode.

Subject: selecting a sentence in Word


Using Word 2007, is there any keystroke way to select an entire sentence? I know how to select a word or a paragraph, but am stumped as to how to select a sentence. My Jaws teacher thought it might be alt + shift + down arrow, but for me both that and ctrl + shift + down arrow selects the whole paragraph. There must be some way quicker than ctrl + shift + left or right arrowing one word at a time until I get to the end of the sentence.
