    Um, no.... I was trying to keep the message short and now see it could be 
misunderstood.  If you use the End key you go to the end of the line but I've 
had to sort list of words that had unneeded text to the right.  In these 
cases I used Ctrl-Right Arrow to get to the last word I wanted included in 
the column block then just the RightArrow to move to the end of that word. 
The End key would have taken me past it.
    If you use the commands a lot, assigning them to a F key as you have done 
makes more sense.
