Hi adrian,
Sorry for not being more explicit.
I have a HJPad document that has 72 lines of text. The shortest line has 2
characters and the longest has 3 characters. It is a very long list.
An example of the layout is below, which are the first 2 lines of this
document.
01
225
and so on down the list.
What I am trying to do is select lines 19 to 36, and move up to and adjacent
to line 1, then do the same with the next 36 lines so that in the end I will
have 4 columns of small text.
It would look much more appealing than a long skinny line.
Hope this makes sense.
I know I could retype this list and change it that way, but if I could use
the tools available, it would help with later ventures.
The only editing programs I have are HJPad, Wordpad, and Notepad.
Maybe I cannot do this in these programs.
Thoughts?
Many Thanks,
Morey

Hi, Morey.
I think you will get more useful advice if you specify what kind of
material you are trying to drag and drop. I find selecting, copying and
pasting covers most situations where sighted users drag and drop. The
trick is to know the various methods of selection, such as control-a for
all, shift-down arrow for a single line of text, and so on.
If this last suggestion isn't relevant to your question, I apologize, but
in that case, it shows the need to be specific.

Hello all, I have a real headache trying to get Jaws8 (new version) to
drag and drop items in a document such as HJPad. Is there a bunch of
secrets for doing this? I have tried the help menu but no real hands on
help. Is there a tutorial for this somewhere? Please....any help
appreciated. If you wish to contact me off list so not as to clutter it
up, please do so.
Thanks,
Morey Worthington
