[JAWS-Users] Invoking The Control + F Keystroke
Hi All, Whenever I invoke the control + F keystroke, which is supposed to invoke the screen readers find dialogue, Jaws goes dead & I have to use the Insert, Windows key, + F4 keystroke to shut Jaws down & a shortcut keystroke to get Jaws running again. Does anyone have this issue or am I using the wrong keystroke for starting a search? If I'm using the wrong keystroke for starting a search, for certain files for example, whaat is the correct keystrroke? All advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much. Take care.

If I am looking for a file, than window + F is the key stroke that I use.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Invoking The Control + F Keystroke
Hi Flor, Justin, & RJ, Thank you very much for your replies & input. First, I misspoke, I was trying to do a windows search but, what happened was I was using a registry hack that allowed me to use the Windows 98 search in XP.. I prefer the way the dialogue boxes come up in that version but, after running the, old search off registry hack to turn the old search off in the registry, I can now use both the control + F & Windows Key + F, keystrokes to open the windows search dialogue. So, back to normal well, Doctor Phil would argue the hell out of that! LOL, hahaha hahaha hahaha, LOL Thanks again. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Invoking The Control + F Keystroke
Interesting, I have always used the Control + F keysroke to open the Windows Search. I don't usually browse for a location from the search dialogue, I open the search from within the folder I am wanting to search. When using this method, the only difference I find, is that if I Alt F4 the search window after using the Control + F to open it, it also closes the folder from which I was searching. This is not the case using the Windows + F keystroke to open the search dialogue. Using either keystroke here, seems to yield the same results. The only time I use the Jaws find command, Insert + Control + F, is on the internet.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Invoking The Control + F Keystroke
Rick, What I like about the win key+ f is no matter where one is at, they can get the file they are looking for. Example, if in O E or the desktop or on the internet, I can bring up the spreadsheet , or document I am looking for without closing from the window I am in. Alt tab will bring me from the document I open back to where I was.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Invoking The Control + F Keystroke
Hi Steve, Thank you very much for your reply. I misspoke, I was trying to do a windows search but, I was using the information I was getting from Jaws keyboard help as to what the keystrokes were described as when I gave the keystroke descriptions. Anyway, the issue has been fixed. Thanks again. Take care.
