Obviously not interested in your bank details but which bank is that you are 
having this problem with, perhaps someone else has the same bank and could 
compare notes with a view to finding what the problem is and then possible 
resolution.

  Hi,
  I have also had trouble with form fields with 7.10.  Not quite the same as
  you I think.  What I am finding on a particular banking website is entering
  password digits in their individual fields.  Normally you automatically
  start in field 1, then field 2 etc. but with 7.10 it seems to land on any
  random field and it doesn't reliably tell you wich.  When I use this website
  now I go back to 7.0.

  I have also noticed that some of the settings don't seem to have taken
  effect with the Merge Utilities function.  I might try running it again.

  I had trouble with Google some time ago when it kept on interrupting
  everytime I went to a new field in a form.  I found the problem in
  Add/Remove Software.  Forgotten what it was called but had "google" in it.
  Taking it out sorted it.

  Things are not looking good I think with Jaws 7.1 at the moment but it is
  still a Beta version so can't moan I suppose.

  Regards

  David

  Hi,

  I am finding this new update a bit difficult to get used to.  The main
  reason is that on a web form, if you are arrowing through the form, Jaws
  before 7.10 read out the relevant field, then the edit box etc for you
  to put the data into.  However, what I am now finding is that Jaws is
  reading some sort of attribute on the form entry fields, in addition to
  the data which is visible in the browser window, in effect reading the
  data out twice for each arrow up/down.  It is not therefore easy to
  distinguish when you come to the edit field in a form, you have to use
  different navigation commands to get you to the next edit field etc.

  One clear example on this is at http://www.google.com, where I usually
  quickly arrow down until I hear the words "edit", however, now I hear
  the words "google search" read out twice, once for the text shown above
  the form field, and once again on the form field itself.

  Is there any way to turn this feature off, so that I can hear the
  description of the field by pressing a key or something?

  Also, I realise that Brian has done a script for this, but I find
  Outlook a bit annoying when you continually hear the same message read
  out if you come to the bottom of the list.  If you are viewing a folder
  with the new messages coming at the bottom, you don't know when you
  reach the bottom of the list easily, because you continually hear the
  last message in the list, which makes it seem like that person wrote
  loads of messages.

  Thanks.
  Andrew.
