Greetings,
I  am responding to your  kind message, because i want  people to see the
advice which I have tried.  When I use the Page down command, absolutely
nothing happens. Then I try "control + Page down" and I hear "This is not
available in Virtual cursor"  or something like that. I *cannot*  use Insert
F 7--although I would dearly like to, because there are over 10 items more
or less  that are called "Continued".
I  need a direct way to move to the next screen.
Thanks anyhow for your well-intended and kind response.
