Hello Ray.
To change the underlying name of the account instead of changing the display
name only you need to open run and type the following without the quotes of
course "control userpasswords2", this will open a dialog box where you will
be presented with a list of usernames. Next you need to select the name of
the user that you want to change, press the properties button, you will land
on the general page focused on the edit field where you can type over the
name that is there. After you make your changes you need to press apply and
then you need to press the OK button all the way out of the dialog boxes.
This solution should work both under Windows XP and Windows Vista.
I hope this helps.

Subject: Can't Get JFW to Read New Account Name
Hello All:
I have a question. When you change the name on a user account, how do
you get JFW Version 8 to read the new name? Here's what happened. We
had a computer on loan to one individual. It was returned and we loaned
it to another client. Before doing so, as part of cleaning up and
checking the system, we changed the name on the limited user account we
set up.
Here's what happens. When JAWS comes up on the Windows Logon screen,
when you arrow down, it reads out the old account name even though the
new account name is displayed. I checked the user account stuff to be
sure everything is right and it is set with the new name.
Can anyone tell me what is going on and how to fix this?
Thanks,
