Hi Tom, I would say W10 is not that hard to use. Things are just in a little different places in W10 then in W7. Like I said in a previous email if you join the W10 group and listen to some of Jim's audio files it will make the learning curve way easier than just going on your own. Just by listenin

Hi Ed, I have been using Windows 10 exclusively now for about six months. As another list member mentioned, transitioning from Windows 7 to Windows 10 will present you with a learning curve. However, once you become familiar with Windows 10, it is, in my opinion, much more stable and user friendl

Hi George, I have been using W10 for about four or five months now. It is a little different than W7. I learned a lot from being on this Windows 10 and Jaws group. On this group the owner Jim has I think around 49 audio and text files on how to do things in W10. He has text files on how to install

Karen, I think you mean control-f rather than alt-f, right? I just tried your method. Unfortunately, I've assigned control-alt-y as my Firefox shortcut, and to my surprise, it overrides the MS Word 2010 function. I don't know why, since my control-alt-I shortcut for IE is overridden by MS Word 2

I'm not sure what versions of word this works in but, I know it works in 2010. Do the alt f thing and put in the word or phrase you want to fine and enter.
