Hi Steve, To add to this, Tina may well have scroll lock on, which affects cursor movement over the file. Who knows without looking.

Tina, My experience with Sound Forge 11 has been primarily with Window-Eyes although I am somewhat familiar with JFW and I know a little about Jim SnowBarger's scripts. I have not had the problem you indicate and have not observed any differences in that regard between Sound Forge 10 and 11. Having said that, though, there are a huge number of options that can have all different kinds of effects. While I can't think of one that should just arbitrarily put you at the beginning of the file, I have had some options cause some strange things to happen. For example, I brought a file I created in Sound Forge 10 into Sound Forge 11, and none of the over 50 markers I had set worked. Wow, was I mad, Why didn't they keep compatibility, and on and on. I went back and finished in Sound Forge 10. I found out later by accident, that pressing the letter x changes the "play mode." It causes markers to be ignored in favor of other parameters. I went back to that old Sound Forge 10 file, brought it into version 11, and what do you know, all of the markers worked flawlessly. I am not saying that some of what others have found is not true, because my use of Sound Forge is not as complex as some of the others here. However, if one is going to use a program like this successfully, it is worth learning as much about it as you can. I think getting version 10 now might be difficult, for one thing. Yet, if you are having good luck with Sound Forge 8, you might be best served to stick with it if it works with your hardware. The old version I was using did not work on 64-bit systems, as I recall, or it wasn't compatible with something in Windows 7, I don't remember any more, but I was forced to switch. You will probably be forced to switch from Sound Forge 8 to something newer at some point, too, but it might not happen for a while. If I were you, though, since you've spent the money, I'd investigate it a little more before giving up. You can probably have both versions on your computer so it might not have to be all of one or the other. I know I can have versions 10 and 11 both on my computer at once. You might also want to be sure you have the latest scripts or whether there is anything you have to do to make them work with version 11, but you've probably done that. Checking to see which cursor snapping options are in effect could make a difference as well. Others who are more into Sound Forge 11 may have other advice as well, and I may simply not have encountered what some have because I tend to be working with two track recordings. Good luck.
