Hi Paul Thanks for the info. Do you think this could be the problem if a new version of Jaws is installed? The reason I ask is that I think the boy I volunteer with has a new version of Jaws installed. I'll check his laptop when he gets back from his holidays. Can you send the instructions you mentioned in your last email? Thanks.
