    Hi Scott, well, set the keyboard layout to laptop in options/basics. This 
way you can use the caps lock key as the Jaws key, and, substitute the numeric 
keypad keys with some other keys on the keyboard. With the laptop layout you 
will still be able to use your keyboard as a normal desktop keyboard if your 
laptop has a full keyboard and a numerical keypad if you know what I mean. 
Actually I use the Jaws laptop keyboard layout whether I'm on a desktop or a 
laptop. It gives me the good of both worlds. Try it, I think you'll like it.

    HTH,
    Amro

      Hi,

      I've been give a loan of a laptop with Jaws 7.1 on board for the duration 
of my 10 week college.
      I'm not sure if there is a laptop setting or such that I need to turn on 
etc. in order for jaws to work with same keystrokes as my version of jaws I use 
on the PC in the office?
      Any help greatly appreciated, course

      thanks,



      Scott
