Cynthia, F8 in Word is interesting. Repeatedly pressing F8 will select the word, sentence, paragraph, of whole document the cursor is in. It's called extended selection mode. It's not a JAWS command. It's a bit puzzling.  I was hoping for a selection command that can could allow me to add sentence by sentence to the selection. It seems like that would make it easier to cut and paste units of text around when doing writing and editing. I wonder if any screen reader can do that?
