        Hi, Folks,

I have always had problems trying to get hyperlinks. They don't seem to come up 
automatically when I type either an email or web address.

Do I have an incorrect setting?

If I try to create a hyperlink it still doesn't seem to work.

Best wishes,

Joan.

  Hi
  Afraid I can't help out with your query Robin, but it did throw up something 
that is bugging me.
  Despite numerous attempts I simply cannot insert a link into a message in 
Outlook Express and can't understand why not. I can see well enough to know 
that addresses I type come up in blue, but when JAWS lands on them he doesn't 
say "link" so I know they are not active as it were. And indeed JAWS won't give 
me focus if I try to tab to them. It's the same if I try to copy an url from 
another message, or even forward a message. Links simply become inactive.

  Does anyone know why this happens, and if so, what can I do to correct it? If 
I type a link in a document using Word it works fine, but I don't know how to 
change my preferred email program to Word. If that's the correct terminology. 
By the way I'm using JAWS 3.5 and Windows SE. I also have AVG7 running if that 
helps at all?

  Thanks for any help.

  Lynda

    Hi all,

    Re my quest to find the user manual for the Goodmans GSR80 DAB radio, I 
tracked down the manufacturers website, but gee whizz, it is just a nightmare 
to get around. Any of you sightees on this list want to look for me and see if 
there's any way to navigate to this product's user guide perhaps?

    Or, tell me if JFW 6 can work with this?
