Mitch, actually I do use the left pinky on control, the right pinky on
insert or jaws key and the third finger on the right hand for the 7 on the
key pad. Years of playing a musical instrument limber up your fingers and
give them more dexterity. Judith

Actually, this 3 key sequence is not tricky but your method gets you to the
same place.
I expect most people using the 3 key method use the left pinky for the
control key and the right thumb for the insert key and the right index
finger for the home key. This puts you on the first form field with one
less keystroke than your method but I think the point is that our habits
formed with JAWS are hard to break and I just routinely use the 3 key
method.
Along these lines, it seems that as JAWS gets more powerful and the
keystrokes associated with all the ever growing options and customization
possibilities grow, the list of keystrokes seems at times incomprehensible.

As I just said,, now that someone told me, why not just go to the top of the
Web page with control home and then press F or E, depending what you're
looking for? this is a pretty acrobatic key command that doesn't seem very
necessary to me. But if you like it, fine. God knows we don't need an
argument over how many ways we can do things, etc. So, just asking.

Hi, Yardbird this is the same as has been stated e.g. control plus insert
key plus the home key. The 'home' key is also the #7 when the num lock is
turned on. Mitch----- Original Message ----- From: "Yardbird" <yardbird@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Wow. I turned on the Insert 1 function to hear what this was, but my
fingers can't figure out how to do it, even. What *is* this?
