The default is:
The JAWS cursor will not follow the PC cursor.

Thank you.

  Hello Mike and Friends,
  Mike, I tried this key command, it is a "toggle", but now I do not know if 
what I should have:
  I mean what is the default?

  1.  The JAWS Curser will Follow the P C Cursor
  Or 
    2.  The JAWS Curser will Not Follow the P C Cursor

    Sorry if this is a stupid question!
    But I forgot which way I had it after I toggled it a couple of times!

    With Best Regards,

    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.
