Renette:
Instead of drag and drop (which is difficult in JAWS) you could have "cut " the letter head (ctrl K) then "pasted" it at the top of the letter (ctrl+ V).

Yes, I did.

The same happened to a sighted friend when she copied and paste.  The
letterhead moved to the bottom, but then she could dragged up.

Did you place the cursor all the way to the bottom of your letterhead blank
before pasting?

Hi All

I wrote a letter in Word and then had to get this letter on a letterhead
that was sent to me electronically and that was also in a Word document
(letterhead at the top and the rest of the document blank).

I copied my letter and paste it into the Word document containing only the
letterhead.

For some or other mysterious reason, the letterhead moved down and the
letter appeared at the top (letterhead at the bottom).

A sighted friend managed to drag the letterhead to the top and dropped it
where it should be - at the top of the document - above my letter.

How can I do the same?

I am using the latest version of Jaws and XP Home and Word 2000.

Thanks!

Renette
