Hi Barry, I know, I just thought of Jaws-ism, but it does it all the time doesn't it. Then when some poor unsuspecting Jaws-ist like Damon uses Narrator, and can't click links with his little space bar, I can sit there and say "told you so", <Grin>. And yes, I know to my cost that the ladies don't like it <Big Smile>. All the best -- Computer Room Services: the long cane for blind computer users.

Steve, love the term Jaws-ism! I dont' think I'll use it on the girlfriend though when she goes on a bout something that's unnecessary. Did you know the lady's don't like that kind of thing????
