The only other way to do it would be to have JAWS going onto the Net periodically to see if the SMA count has changed. Personally, I don't want my JAWS doing that.

That's why I was wondering how to update that count in the help menu. Yes, then why bother having that under the help menu if it is kind of bogus after the fact.

 That seems odd to me.  Is it really how they work this?  It seems to me
 that
 when you purchase a couple of credits from a company, those credits ought
 to
 show up in your account where you can see them, at least, and with Jaws,
 there should be a way also to update what shows in the Help menu item. I'm
 not contradicting you, just saying it seems to me a meaningless way for
 this
 to be done.  I mean, as soon as they log your new payment, you'll have two
 credits, which you can look forward to using when the next two versions of
 Jaws come out.  But, if this is how it works, you'll never see your two
 credits anywhere.  You'll simply order or download Jaws 8 and then you'll
 be
 able to see online or even on your own copy in the Help menu that you then
 have just one credit?  SMA, I mean?    Kind of, umm, idiosyncratic, I'd
 venture to say.

Thanks, George. I won't worry about it until version 8 comes out I guess. Smile.
