Hi,
I like your first idea. (grin) I do the tether thing anyway to get to areas
the virtual cursor sometimes can't get to. Depending on the screen, the Jaws
to PC doesn't always read everything either when arrowing through. Are there
helps for that, too?
Thanks.
Judy

Judy,
I think you should get your sighted friend and family to learn JAWS. Just
kidding. One idea is to turn on the Teather JAWS to PC feature. This will work
when you are filling in form fields as the mouse pointer will move to where you
are typing. It will not follow the virtual PC Cursor, but it is a start toward
a solution. I think the keystroke is: CTRL+JAWSCursor+NumPad Minus.
I'm looking forward to hearing other ideas on this.

Judy,
Are you specifically referring to when you are browsing the web or
reading an e-mail that is in HTML format?

Hello,
I've had a scenario come up on which I need advice.
If a sighted colleague wants to see where you're navigating on screen
with Jaws, is there a way to help him do that. In various situations, either
at home or at work, when a colleague or family member wants to follow what I'm
doing, the cursor they see on screen isn't following my keystrokes. Also, if
they try to use the mouse with Jaws turned on, the cursor they see doesn't
track well. Is there a fix to this?
Thanks.
Judy
