    Also check to make sure jogging is turned on, and be aware that you can't jog on all the screens.

    Thanks Ger
    I remembered what it was while lying in bed last night.
    For future ref. can you remind me how to get to the virtual keys w/ the mouse. I cant seem to remember where to find that option.
    Thanks again
