Flor,

I've just tried this with JAWS 7 and it works on my PC. When I get the
open dialogue, my focus is in a list of 171 configuration files and I
can find one and press Enter to open it. I've made no changes to the
settings since the installation, so I assume this should be the default
behaviour.

Subject: [jaws-uk] Accessing an application's .jcf from outside the
application in JAWS7?

Hi,

It was possible, in previous versions of JAWS, to open another
application's JAWS configuration file from the Config manager's File
Open... dialogue.  (The config files were listed in a list view.)  (You
might want to do this for a self-voicing application such as K1000.)
Now that I've installed JAWS7, I've found that it's not possible to do
this!  When I go into the File Open... dialogue, from the default JCF or
any other JCF, nothing happens: no dialogue ensues.  Is this a problem,
or a deliberate means of avoiding some problem or other which i never
had?  Or is there some option I should set; but really, JAWS not being
able to thoroughly access one of its main utilities, or having left in
place a now useless functionality?  Windows ME.  And it is the
appropriate version of JAWS7 which works (or seems to) otherwise
correctly.
