Hi Jim, I first learned JAWS at the Oregon Commission for the Blind. Computer training is part of the whole program. I learned to use JAWS with Excel from someone the Blind Commission hired to come to my office. I think it's great Judith could learn JAWS from the tapes. I learned it mostly by having to use it for work. I still do not use it as efficiently as I could...The list helps.

I would appreciate hearing from list members regarding how they first learned Jaws (don't spare the details) . I started out with the F S tutorials and another blind guy coming to my house once a week, mostly helping me with keyboard orientation. All this is about the Jaws for Vets mentoring program. Thank you all in advance! -- To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
