hi Katrina!
Try to click the folder option under the control panel. On the View page, look
for the option that says, Hide file extension. Pls put a check on it to show
each file extension.

Subject: JFW 6.01 Problems On A New Sony Laptop
Hi All,
I have just installed JFW 6.01 on a new Sony VGN-S400 laptop, running
Windows XP Home, and have run into a couple of issues that I hope you can
help with.
I should mention that a wireless numb pad is combined with this unit.
Setting up the numb pad seemed simple, but perhaps I did something wrong.
Most things on the numb pad seem to work fine, but I am unable to use the
commands for reading current line, word, and character. I can't route Jaws
to PC. I can't navigate in any fashion other than moving to the
previous/next character and up/down a line. I can't spell current words,
etc. Basically, it seems I can't do anything that combines the "Insert" key
with something else. Do you have any suggestions/thoughts?
Another problem of immediate concern is the inability to know what a file
extension is. In the JFW training tutorial, he demonstrates going to a file
with a RTF extension. I followed his steps exactly, but no extension was
heard. I bet somewhere an option is marked to hide extensions. I'm too
tired to hunt for that tonight, but will investigate it tomorrow.
I followed the instructions for configuring JFW to work with Windows XP
precisely, as presented in the Help documentation, and even
uninstalled/reinstalled JFW. Nothing I do helps. By the way, before
installing this software on the laptop, I easily and successfully installed
it on a desktop computer running Windows 98 SE.
I look forward to any help you can provide.
Katrina
