Hi,

• Navigate to the item you wish to drag.
• Press VO-cmd-f5 to route the mouse to the VO cursor
• Press VO-cmd-shift-space to invoke the mouse-down action.
• Navigate to the drop location.  Use VO-f1-f1, the App Chooser, if you're 
dragging to a different app.
• When at the drop location, press VO-cmd-f5 again to make sure that the mouse 
is routed to the VO cursor location.
• Press VO-cmd-shift-space to invoke the mouse-up action which will drop it.

A few things to note.  Depending on your keyboard settings, you may need to add 
the FN key to some of these combinations, especially when routing the mouse to 
the VO cursor location.  There are also times that I've found it useful to 
interact with an item when dropping on it.  Lastly, this is an awkward process 
sometimes that does not always work the first time.  See how it goes and update 
me/us if you have problems and we'll go from there with any suggestions.

Good luck.

Later...

Sorry to ask this again how do you drag and drop on the Mac I had saved the 
email of instructions previously but have now deleted it by mistake and I don’t 
use the function enough stupidly to remember and the help section on the Mac 
gives the wrong commands I think
