Ah, Katherine, the missing piece to the puzzle! You were using 6.2 to check
your upgrades. When I check mine with 8.0 instead of 9.0, the About box states
that I have 2 remaining instead of 1.
Now that the 5 upgrades mystery has been solved, I think I can get some sleep!

I run mine from the system tray, too. Yes, I have seen the information in
the section you mentioned. I can't remember what I paid for the SMA, it was
quite a bit as I recall. Perhaps it said 5 because I am using 6.2. When I was
on the website it had me listed as using 9.0. I was more interested in making
sure I had the keys so I could install Jaws in my son's computer with no
problem. That doesn't mean I won't encounter a problem, but it's best to be
prepared.
Take care,
Katherine

Katherine,
You must have a super-SMA. My SMA only gave me 2 upgrades, and I have
already used one of them. The JAWS 9.0 CD was mailed to me automatically when
it was released.
I have never used the Control+Insert+v command with JFW since I run it in
the system tray. I changed the option tonight just to see what it would
display while in the JAWS window. It did give quite a bit of information,
including the synthesizers that are installed. It correctly listed my
remaining upgrades as 1. You can also find the number of upgrades you have
remaining in the About dialog under the JAWS Help menu.

Thank you, Everyone.
I have 5 upgrades left. Even if I didn't know, when you go in to Jaws
and press control insert v, it tells you a good deal of information. It gives
the serial number, first 7 digits of the authorization number and the locking
code and the number of upgrades. So, I certainly knew that information.
What I didn't know was the procedure regarding upgrades and whether they had to
be ordered or were sent automatically.
Thank you to all who understood and answered my question. And, the
representative I dealt with who sold me the SMA was Keith Patterson.
Katherine
