Hmm,

Okay, Allen.  I see that it would be a bit too complicated to create this 
sort of functionality.  Oh, well.  It was a pleasant idea, anyway.

hi Yardbird,

hmm, i personally dont think this can be done.

1. as maybe you might know, when every version of jaws, it will install in 
to a different folder, it is not install on top of
current version.

2. each version of jaws will have its own "registry value", so is impossible 
to make the upgrade option in the help menu.

there maybe many others reason that i cant think it now that cannot make the 
upgrade option in the help menu.

Regards,
Allan Wong

I'm thinking, wouldn't it be awfully nice if in fact it could work this way?
Like, once you had JFW installed, using the update feature in the Help menu
could give you an option of either downloading and installing the latest
update patch to your current version or, if you had an SMA credit, providing
the option to download and install the upgrade, instead?

hi,
no, that help menu is for jaws update not for jaws upgrade.

update means from jaws 7.10.452 to jaws 7.10.500

upgrade means from jaws 7.10 to jaws 8.0

Okay probably a dumb question, but I thought one way to get Jaws updates was
to go into Jaws 7.10's help sub-menu and then enter on check for updates.
When I did this it says I have the latest version.  Shouldn't I be able to
access Jaws 8 through 7.10's help menu?
