Gary, 
You can also just delete the document from the web site and post an
updated version. 
We're using Sharepoint as well. 
Shift plus enter seems to be the key combo to success, along with a lot
of double-clicking with JFW. 
I haven't read all these messages, will try to get to them and see if I
can help.

Hi Gary,  I don't know the version.  We moved from 2.0 to sharepoint
services 2007.  Also I am not much help because the checkin and checkout
has been disabled on our site.  If I use the shift+enter it brings me
directly to a file download dialogue.
Does your site have the accessibility mode?
According to our documentation these menus should be brought up in a new
window with the shift+enter.  Are you using IE 6 or 7.  if you are using
IE 7 the menu may be coming up in a new tab rather a new window.
You might want to talk to your sharepoint administrator to make sure
they haven't disabled something you need.
Sorry I can't be of more help.

JAWS user group,
I use JAWS with SharePoint / Team Connect for the sharing of folders and
documents.
When you want to update a particular document in a folder using
Microsoft the document first needs to be 'checked out' so that you have
exclusive update rights.  To do this you go to the document 'link' and
push shift-enter.  This brings up a small menu and one of the menu
options is 'check out'.  Menu nor menu options can't be seen using Ctl-F
or Ins-F7 for links.
 
This is obviously very visually intensive and was wondering how else one
could check out a document.  SharePoint or Team Connect runs under
Internet Explorer.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Gary
