Well, most interesting.
When I use the alt+up arrow the cursor does move as it does when I use the
alt+down arrow.
It moves to the first character of the sentence which was just read.
I am using JAWS 7.0, XP Home and Microbloat Outlook.
Cy, the ancient okie...

This is not the key strokes for say previous line or say next line, but it
is the closest I can find.  alt + up arrow is say previous sentence, and alt

+ down arrow is say next sentence.   In both cases the pc cursor does not 
move.
