hello John,

If you are addressing this to me, I never said that the command you mention 
was useless.  I only said that it duplicates an already existing Windows 
keyboard Find command.  Someone explained that it carries over from a 
command Jaws and Freedom created more for searching in their HJ Pad word 
processor.  In any case, it seems that it can be of use in Internet 
Explorer, also, so people become accustomed to using it there, too.  All I 
did was draw attention to the fact that Windows already has the control F 
command, the same keystrokes you would use for the same purpose in Word. 
None of this is any impediment to accessibility.

Thank you,
Daniel
