Thanks for the clarification, George.  I suppose that, in the case of Jaws, 
this could mean a further delay of the release of 5.1.  Then again, FS could, 
if necessary, put the scripts for SP2 in Jaws 6.  It would certainly be a 
selling strategy for the new version.  Ah, well.  That's business.

  Not quite, Barry.
  What Microsoft are saying is that in some
  circumstances, some (unspecified) screen readers
  might possibly stop working.  (Talk about speaking
  like a Member of the UK Parliament!!)

  That is why it would be wise to wait until you get
  advice from your screen reader manufacturer as to
  what the situation is.

  George.
