Hi:
Sorry about that! I was trying to type at the same time trying to keep my
cat from trying to climb the keyboard. I don't have a fun function either;
in fact, computers can be not so fun too. Thanks to all of you for
mentioning that shortcut by the way, now I may use that instead of going
through the whole start menu thing. I tried it and it too worked fine.
Have a good evening.
Liz

Hi,
thanks a lot, but I don't have a fun function on my computer. Sure wish I
did! Just teasing. It wasn't I who was having the problem. I was just
trying to figure out what someone was saying. James explained it clearly in
a way I could understand. It was just about writing, not about a technical
puzzle. Thanks.

Hi:
Hope this helps. To use the fun function, press the windows key (on my
computer it is between the control and alt key on the left side) then arrow
til you see run then hit enter. Upon hitting enter, a dialog box will
appear and you can either browse your programs or type the name in where it
says edit or words to that effect. I think after that you just press okay.
I have done this several times and it has seemed to work fine. I am using
Jaws 5 with windows xp home so some other versions of jaws and windows may
work differently. Take care.

Please look below. You first say that pressing Windows key R doesn't work,
then you say it does work. I'm confused.

The run function is not on the start menu and pressing windows and the
letter R does not work. A few people on this list suggested hitting windows
key in conjunction with the letter R and it worked.
