Hi, Sue. Oh, I know. I just don't know if there are any specific 
navigational commands for braille displays, as I'm sure there are, so I 
didn't know if using the tab was something specifically related to braille 
display navigation. Take care.

Sorry, you are right, Julie.  I was thinking of the tab in relation to web
menus where you pick out an item to click on.  I do not typpe on my braille
display.  I type on a computer keyboard just as you do.

If you're in a word processing program, the tab would move the cursor and
mess up the file, unless it's a Read Only file. That is, of course, unless
that's a specific command for braille displays, and I don't use one, so I
wouldn't know. Take care.

Wouldn't the tab highlight things also?  I use a Braille display and if you
tab to where you want to go, you can then use the arrow keys to keep thiings
highlighted.

I suspect, that Shift right arrow, or Shift down, up or left arrow would
also highlight the text to work with this product.

I use a lot of programs that don't have hot keys, but really do have them,
smile, Thanks Windows.  But downloaded a copy so will be playing with it.
