Thanks Judith and Yardbird,

My problem is that the word I want to get rid of and replace with nothing is not within a document, but is the first word of the name of a lot of files on a list.

Inside word you can use this function to adapt your list the way you want it. Let's say that the word you are lookintg to eliminate is "alto". In the first box in the control H function you would type "alto". In the next box you would type four spaces, tab to change all and hit enter. The change would take place and the word alto would be eoliminated from the first part of the entry on each line. Judith

Yardbird,

The control H seems to work inside most any file I have tried it, namely note pad, and word pad. Where I would like it to work is on a list. I have a folder in "my documents" which contains nearly 100 files the title of each begins with the same word. It is the second word that distinguishes them from each other. I had hoped that while on the list I could use that command to eliminate the first word and replace it with nothing so that the second word would be the identifying one. Hope this hasn't been too confusing.

Bob S.

Which application are you working in when you use this command? The only
context I know for this command is MS Word. And I've used Word for a long
time, before I needed Jaws, and that command has always been part of Word,
allied with the Control F find function.

Is control H, the find and replace command a jaws function? If not I'll take my question to another list.
