Hello Friends, I have been using JAWS for a very long time. Anyway, can some one please tell me what the: JAWS Keyis.... I am serious, I do not know, and I have seen reference to it in the messages once in a while.
Sorry if I seem nuts, but I assure you, I have been using JAWS successfully for many years holding down employment and supporting myself and my wife! I just do not know what the JAWS key is!!
