Hello Ron,
I use Vista and had the same problem when I first started editing,
using Audacity. There is a bug that makes it delete everything,
regardless of what you have sellected, unless you press enter until
you hear Jaws, (or whichever speech programme you use), say "sellect
on". If it doesn't say that, you will loose all your data when you try
to delete portions of it.

All the best,
Sandra.
