Thanks to everyone for all the ideas and suggestions. As it turns out
there is indeed an insert key on the keyboard of the new laptop but
it's in a different place and only half the size of the "normal" keys.
I had someone sighted look at the keyboard and he found the insert key
tucked away above
The JAWS key also seconds as the Insert key, just like the number 0 on the
number key pad.

In one of my computer, I have Office 13 installed with JAWS 16. While
working with MS Excel, 2013, on trying to edit using the edit mode by

Hello Group,
Till couple of weeks back, I enjoyed chatting with my Facebook friends using

Is there any other Apps, that can be used to import FB contacts and enjoy

Looking forward to hearing soon.
Hi all,
I was on the freedom scientific website and was trying to find out how much it
