Hi Mark,

when in the list of documents, press alt v and it will come up in the view
menu, tap the letter d this will make sure that you have the details
displayed at the end of the file name.

Hope that this helps.

  Subject: [jaws-uk] File Types and Folders or Documents


  Dear all

  Not sure if these two issues are  a Jaws issue or a windows issues?

  1. How can I please find out with JFW 7.0 what types of documents I have
stored on my PC, ie, a Doc format file, a PDF format file or an HTML format.
I am aware that documents have file extensions after their names, but jaws
does not seem to be reading this out to me?

  2. When I am arrowing around the files in either owners documents or on my
"C" drive, is there a way in which jaws can tell me if the file name is
either a folder or document please?  I think there is a different type of
visual symbol on the screen, but can not hear Jaws telling me if I am on a
folder with files in it or an actual file document.

  Many thanks for any help with this query.

  Best wishes

  Mark
