Thanks, Jackie -- I'll give that a try.
Has anyone determined the precise sequence JAWS 9 uses for finding
application scripts? I thought it might be the following, but this does
not seem to reliably work:
* Look for ConfigNames.ini in the user script folder, and if present,
look for an association between the module name and the base name of a
script set
* If not found, look for a script name that directly matches the module
name
* If not found, repeat the above sequence in the All Users folder
Seperate from the question of script matching order is how JAWS finds
support files referenced by a script via an Include or Use statement.
Is the user script folder searched first, followed by the All Users
folder? Does it matter in which folder the script file resides?
