Hello "Q"uinto,
	Nicely done! If you don't mind, I would like to refer to you as Q
like in the Bond films. I think that you are a tremendous asset and secret
weapon!

Serena,

The PC cursor is used the majority of the time. The JAWS cursor can be used
in dialogue boxes that you can't read in the standard PC cursor mode. A
dialogue box is one of those messages that sometimes ask you if you want to
do something and you have to click yes or no.  I've seen some forms online
where you do better by using the Jaws cursor, and perhaps that is the case
for the form that was mentioned to start this thread. The Jaws cursor is
like a mouse you can click on things by pressing the /button and the *
button on your num key pad. The / key is to left click and the * is to right
click. On some websites the buttons and/or links are not labeled correctly
and so you can't press enter to activate the item then you could switch to
jaws cursor and arrow down to the button/link and when you are on the word
where the link/button should be press the / key to left click on that item. 
Note that when in Jaws cursor mode you don't navigate by using tab but
rather you have to arrow where ever you want to go (smile). It's a bit of a
pain, but if that's what we have to do then I guess we have to. Hopefully,
you understand this rambling of mine.
