Kevin,
That sounds draconian, somehow. Have you tried using JAWS 8 with Sib-Access?
If it works, then JAWS 8 = Sib 5 and JAWS 10 = Sib 6.
I may have been too terse in my prior response...
If the new Sib-Access scripts for Sib 6 come out and have a different
structure, they may be able to co-habitate the same ENU folder. For example
I just ran over to my DAW and in my ENU folder I have scripts with Sibelius
5.jcf and Sibelius 6.jcf. This means that you could conceivably have both
Sib 5 and Sib 6 scripts run from the same version of JAWS, as long as each
set of scripts are properly named for the version of Sibelius.
If however these new not-yet-released Sib 6 scripts have special files or
functions that cannot be named with a "5" or "6" then all bets are off.
We'll have to see what Dan comes up with first.
Hold on to your checkbook for now. I'm very not-happy with JAWS 12
overall -- I consider it to be a very buggy and poorly-controlled product
release.

All is as I figured.
I will have to buy JAWS 12 so that I have a second version of JAWS to use
for Sib 6. Currently, all I have are versions 8 and 10.
thanks,
Kevin
