and that is the keyboard cursor.

Some windows have a cursor, and some don't. For example if you open an email message that someone sent you (assuming you are using the Mail program) there is no cursor on that window so you read the message with the VO cursor. But in a text editor, the app itself does have a cursor for you to insert text etc. I think that's what the application cursor is, but I tried going to Textedit, putting the cursor on a word and pressing ctrl+command+d and no definition appeared. This function that Keith is talking about sounds like something Apple would do, though...

Marcy, Those are the very questions I am asking.Marcy, what I am saying here is, I have hit a brick wall I don't know the answers to those questions.

You said your're having trouble routing the program cursor to the word. What do you do to route the cursor? What keys to you use? Maybe others could be of help here too? Thanks!

Press, VO keys-F2 twice for the window chooser.The problem is, I can't get it to work all of the time.If you have nothing better to do, give this a look.
