sorry.  I lost forms mode and the message sent on me.

as I was saying, route jaws to pc,
press page up,
press down once,
press end
press incert and left arrow to go to the previous word and then hit
the left mouse button.

I have a really basic script set up to do that form me now.  I will
send it over if you need to do it regularly.

Shout if you have any more questions.
