Hello listers:
    This problem with  JAWS not reading any menu items has gotten to the
point that it now does not move up and down the menu lists.  Even in the
configuration manager...  so there is no way for me to change any settings
what so ever!  I'm really at a loss here...

           Signed, desparte Patrick
