Ah Rich but there is a way to be able to copy the infomation from the dialog 
box. All you do is press your jaws key followed by the windows key and the 
letter W. A bit of a move but it does work. It "verturalises the current 
window" or in this case the about dialog box of your current jaws version. It 
can really come in handy when you get an error message because all you do is 
issue that command arrow up and down select what you want with the shift and 
control and arrow keys or just do a plain select all with control A. 
Hope that's helped 
Thanks 
Daniel

sorry.
it is correct.  thank you for catching me. Really.
My current version of JAWS is 12 point zero point  525.
When I do an About JAWS it reads it pretty quickly and I try to remember what 
it says.  
I thought I would try and paste it but I could not get the cursor to focus on 
the version number to paste it.
So there goes my gold star for today. Thanks for the information.
I guess I will wait until the update question box pops up to ask for my 
permission.

Rick,

You have version 12.0.525 -- Not 12.5.25. Check your "about" box again, please.

  I have been watching my JAWS 12 check for updates by way of the help menu. 
and so for it has not come up.  
  I am using JAWS version 12.5.25 on my Windows 7 Home Premium machine.  It 
seems to work pretty well.
  This version is what is listed on About JAWS.
   
  Perhaps the update happened automatically?
  Or should I say, is this the most recent version?
   
  Thanks.
  Rik
