[JAWSLite] Re: JAWS and Word or just Word

In-line autocomplete is on the Advance tab in the Browse section in IE.under 
Tools, Options. Oh, what a mixed up sentence. There are also autocomplete 
settings under Tools, Options, on the Content tab. I don't know how they are 
all connected, but I have all mine turned off and I don't have the problem 
of autocomplete for filenames in Word. For what it's worth, there is an 
autocomplete option in Excel, and I don't know if it's somehow connected or 
not.

It's actually a windows function, and windows will do it in the standard
file open dialogs used by any program.

I think you can turn it off (it would be for all programs) via an ie
"advanced" setting.  These are the ones you reach via the tools |
options menu of ie, then you go to the right-most tab of "advanced"
setting, and you go down a long list of "checkible" list box options.  I
think one of them controls autocomplete of addresses outside of ie.

I'm not sure where-else in windows you can get to this setting.
