You can also try command along with the grav key. This will move you from
window to window within an application. At least it does in Snowleopard.

So, when I press command-tab twice, it doesn't bring me to the
previously open help topic I left. It only switches me to the other
application windows or brings me back to the same VO utilities window.
If I go to the menu and arrow down the windows options, I only see one
applications window available to choose from. Is one of those other
options on that windows drop-down the one I need to take me back to the
topic I left? How does one switch to different windows within an
application window?

Ok, here is an example..
 
I am currently in a help window that has . here is an even better
example of not having a clue of something that should be (and needs
to
be) understood by a neophyte.
 
As I am writing this message, I switch to another window where I'm
working with a help topic. I switch back to this window to write
something and when I use the "command-tab" hoping to return to the
help
window. I end up back in the VoiceOver utilities area. Not the help
topic I thought I would be going to. How do I make this simple
switch
from one window to another without having to navigate back to the
topic
layer after linked layer?
 
This is the sort of thing that I never had to think about before.

can you give us an example?  I believe I know what you need to do

rather than searching through help for an item, it would speed up
the
process having an example.

Right now I'm going through the VoiceOver help menu seeking areas
I'm
weak on and hoping to learn more. When I get to a "show" clickable
object, I select it. and nothing seems to happen except that it
changes
from a "show" to a "hide" area. Where does the related information
get
shown? What part of this process am I not getting?
 
I can freely admit that navigation and safari navigation in
particular are my weakest areas. This makes learning via the
provided
help topics slow. Does anyone know of a good tutorial for
transplanted
windows/internet explorer/JAWS users? I mean, there should be enough
of
us by now to have, at least, an email list that can serve as a place
to
trade and ask for information that might bore those of you for whom
the
mac environment is natural.
