This is equivalent to pressing the BACKSPACE key. You can "press" it multiple times (up to 20) by saying, for example, "Backspace 5." Keyboard editing shortcuts If you prefer to edit by typing, you can speed up your work by using keyboard shortcuts. These shortcuts are not specific to Dragon NaturallySpeaking®-they are built-in and work in almost any Windows® program.
