Re: update for jaws

Hi, Adrian.  I saw the first post.  I've also gone to the Freedom Scientific 
site many times.  Until recently, I couldn't get the link to work that was 
supposed to give the enhancements only for the current release.  Once I figured 
out that I had to click the link, then sometimes to refresh the screen, I was 
OK.  But I've had many people tell me that it was difficult to find this link.

  Bill,

  I thought your earlier posting was thoughtful, but this is unfair to Dave. 
First, he did tell the lister how to fish: go to the website whose address we 
all know by heart to get the answer, which is easy to find there. Perhaps in 
this case it might have been wiser not to post at all, but he was doing exactly 
what a good teacher often will do. The second point is that Dave has been one 
of the most informative contributors to the list for some time. He's taught a 
lot of us to fish.

  Yeah, Dave, but you didn't teach anyone to fish. You only told them to go 
fishing. There's a big difference between the two. Until you learn that, you'll 
never teach anyone to fish. Bill White billwhite92701@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  Nope. Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him to fish and he 
feeds himself for life.

  Thank you Bill for going through the trouble of retrieving that information. 
Yes, the info is available on FS's site, but why some people find it necessary 
to reply to a request simply to say, "go get it yourself", is just plain rood! 
Why waste the time if they're not actually going to help? Maybe that response 
will be forthcoming when they ask for help. We'll see.

  Enhancements in JAWS 11.0.1461 (June 2010) The following is a list of items 
addressed or added between the final JAWS 11.0.1447 release and the JAWS 
11.0.1461 posting. All enhancements since the initial public beta release are 
included in this release.

  JAWS Resolved an issue where letters were lost when using Typing Mode with a 
Focus braille display. Resolved a customer reported issue where JAWS was 
announcing large negative values in combo boxes. JAWS no longer duplicates 
information that is typed into form edit fields. Resolved issues and improved 
performance with the Convert Currency and MLB Scores lookup sources in Research 
It. Word and Outlook Addressed an issue reported by The Lighthouse of Houston 
related to the spell checker not working as expected when using a third party 
add-in with Word. When in a table in a Word document, the INSERT+TAB keystroke 
correctly announces the cell content along with column and row title. The 
default setting for graphics detection in all versions of Word and Outlook 2007 
or later is set to Labeled by default. This means that JAWS announces alt text 
(if available) and image dimensions. Resolved an issue where tutor messages 
were spoken before relevant information when using the ARROW Keys to read the 
next line or previous line in an Outlook 2010 e-mail message. This fix also 
resolves an issue where tutor messages were spoken with each press of an ARROW 
Key when moving through a message folder. JAWS no longer announces an unknown 
function call error when Outlook 2003 is configured to request a user name and 
password before launching. Lotus Notes Resolved two issues with Lotus Notes®. 
JAWS now announces labels for the date and time fields in a calendar entry. 
Also, the ALT+DOWN ARROW keystroke now opens the combo box for date and time 
fields. Resolved an issue with Lotus® Sametime® software where JAWS was not 
reading chat history when using the ARROW Keys. The Lotus Notes topic in the 
JAWS help file has been updated to include the latest application functionality 
and keystrokes.

  I hope this helps you, Laura.

  Have a wonderful day! Bill White billwhite92701@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  I just happened to check for updates yesterday evening as I try to do it once 
a week at least and got the update. I don't know what they updated, when I went 
to the website that page had not been updated.

  This is true. I stumbled upon it while conducting some Jaws repairs last 
night. It is version 11.0.461. I have no idea how well it works or not since 
I've only had it going for about six hours and slept through most of that time, 
it being morning here it hot sunny old Texas.

  HOpe I don't find anything broken.
