Hi Alice;

I'm sorry.  Hopefully someone will jump in and bail me out because I've 
never used a laptop & don't know any laptop keystrokes.  Take care.
Mike

  Hi Bill;

  The keystroke to tether the Jaws cursor to the Pc cursor is,
  Control, Jaws /
  Insert key, + Jaws cursor / Minus key on the num pad.  Hope this
  helps.
  Take care.
  Mike

    Hi, John. I don't believe that Cy was asking how to route the
  JAWS cursor
  to the PC Cursor. What Cy was asking is for the keystroke that
  will always
  tie the Mouse Cursor to the PC cursor. I don't know what that
  keystroke is,
  but I know it exists. What this does is allow sighted users to
  follow the
  cursor that the blind person is using with JAWS. Often, the
  sighted person
  has no idea where the blind person's cursor is focused when using
  JAWS.

    Thank you.

      To map the mouse to the cursor on a desktop config, press
  insert plus
  minus key, to map the mouse to pc, insert plus plus symbol. On
  laptops
  config, capslock + left bracket to map the mouse to pc. To map pc
  to mouse,
  press caps lock + apostrophy.

        Okay, I have forgotten how to get JAWS to track to the
  mouse or vice
  versa.

        When my wife is reading the screen and she wants to know
  where on
  Earth I am reading from it would be nice to track the mouse to
  the cursor.

        JAWS 11, W7 64 bit, MS Outlook 2007.
