Hi, David!
Sorry about that. I tried to be very concise, so here are your
answers... <smile>
When you press the add new group button, the edit field comes right
up. You simply type the group name, and it appears in the groups table.
The only way I know of to add non-sequential names is to press shift
while resting on the individual name, then command c. Then, stop
interacting with the names table, vo back to the groups table,
interact, go to the group name where you want to add the contact.
Stop interacting, vo back to the names table, interact with it, and
press command-c to add the name. So, this means you have to do each
name that stands alone or is non-sequential, in this way.
If anyone knows how to select non-sequential names to copy at once,
please step right on up and let us know! Thanks!
And, sure hope I've explained this all clearly enough, cuz sometimes
it can look real clear to me but only to me <grin>! Marcy

Hi, All!
Just a little fyi about the address book. I wanted to create a family
group. So, this is how I've done it:
1. I created a new group by pressing the create new group button.
This can also be done from the file menu.
2. Use vo to get to the groups table, then interact with it with vo-
shift-down arrow.
3. Down arrow to the new group, then stop interacting with the table
with vo-shift-up arrow.
4. Use vo right arrow to get to the names table
5. Interact with the table, then down arrow to the name or names you
want to add to the group.
6. Press the shift key while resting on the name you want. If there
are multiple names in a row, keep your finger on the shift key and
press the down arrow. You will hear 1 row selected, 2 rows selected,
3 rows selected, and so on. Therefore, just count the number of
contacts that are sequential, so you know how many rows to select.
7. Press command-c to copy your selections.
8. Stop interacting with the names table with vo-shift-up arrow.
9. Use vo left arrow to go back to the groups table and interact with
it with vo-shift-down arrow.
10. Arrow to the group you've chosen to add the contacts to, then stop
interacting with the groups table with vo-shift-up arrow.
11. Use vo-right arrow to get back to the names table, and interact
with it with vo-shift-down arrow.
12. Press command-v, and the contacts you copied will magically appear
in the names table!
Congratulations! You now have a new group, and have added your first
contacts to it. So, go ahead, knock your socks off, be wild and
crazy, and add some more contacts to that new group! Hope this helps!
Marcy
