?Simple. YOu are on the send messege area of the window, right? Well, do so. Now shift tab to a blank area. Jaws doesn't says what it does sadly. Ok, now arrow down. Let's see what happens... OMG! The first messege I send (or my friend). But, you want the last messege... Hmmm... Press control plus end or page down. There you go! There's a glitch though. If you weren't in the window of the chat when the messege arrived you can do anything on the messege view and it won't appear. Do what I do. I go to send a messege and press spacebar. and I hit enter. It will send a blank messege, but now you can read what your friend typed.

If so, I wanted to know how to read IM's sent and received. The alt + 1, 2, 3, etc keys don't work, and I can't figure out another way to read the messages. The jaws cursor will read them, but I'll get to a certain area and then the jaws curser doesn't scroll down anymore. Even with that scroll down symbol thing. How do you all manage to use the jaws curser and get it to behave? Well, anyway, any help would be appreciated. The client seems to work wonderfully, but not being able to read the IM's sent to me makes it rather pointless. Sam
