Rick,
First of all, you said it! Narrator is no fun to use, at least for me.
It's really horrible to mess with. I don't understand half of what it says,
and I don't know the basic commands for navigating or doing stuff. So let's
go, FS, and fix this bug!
Also, Rick, may as well ask: That word "message" is at the top of *your*
every post. So, then, can you account for its presence? Do you have
something in your email program that heads every one of your outgoing
messages with the word "Message," for some reason?
Thanks.

MessageAlex,
I hope FS is able to solve this problem. It's not always convenient to use
narrator instead of JAWS.

Rick, Don't worry about it, I'd have been saying exactly the same things
as you were if it wasn't me having the problem.
Cheers.

Well my apologies then, it must be something to do with the way JAWS is
handleing the keyboard now. Very puzzleing but if narater worked then it's
definately a JAWS issue.

Rick, You are indeed quite correct, doing it with narrator worked a
treat, and I now have the shortcut key I wanted all along ctrl+shift+j.
I'll send freedom Scientific a message about it.
Cheers.

Alex,
Try unloading JAWS 8 with Insert + F4 and using narrator with Windows
key + U and see if you can change the properties successfully. If you can
then JAWS has something to do with it. IF not then its something else.

Rick, Have you been following this thread. I'm sick and tired of
the number of times I've had to explain that I've checked all the desktop
icons to make sure nothing has the keystroke assigned to it. I've also used
shortcut detective from the jfwlite website to determine that there is no
shortcut on my system that has the ctrl+shift+j keystroke assigned to it.
Cheers.

I disagree, JAWS has absolutely nothing to do with properties on
a desktop icon. That is either a MS issue or someone hasn't cleared the
contro+Alt+j shortcut from another icon on the desktop.
We can't blame every single issue to JAWS.

Rich, I'm coming to the conclusion as others already have that
it must be a jaws problem.
Cheers.

Hi Alex,
Gave it a shot and came up short. Darn. Will give it more
thought.
