Hi Husna,
it does work - honest. It works in any list view where you can select multiple
items, for example in the list of files and folders in windows explorer. Just
to recap:
1. select the first item.
2. press ctrl + up arrow or control + down arrow till you get to the item which
you want to be the last item. Note that using these keys changes which item is
the focus, but only the first item is selected.
3. press shift+space bar to select all the items from the first to the last.
You can use the jaws keystroke insert+shift+down arrow to read the selected
items.
Note, that between selecting the first item and pressing shift+space bar,
you've not allowed to press the arrow keys on their own, or ctrl+spacebar, or
spacebar. All of these reset the the location of the first item in the
selection.
David.
original message:
hi,
i think it was you who said it was possible to select multiple messages by
pressing control downarrow until you get to a message you want to keep,
unselect that with control up arrow, select the messages in between with
shift spacebar and then press the delete key to delete the messages
selected. just wanted to let you know this does not work, only the current
message that the cursor is on gets selected and deleted.
