RE: Reading the status line in folders

If a document  in the folder list is selected when I press insert pagedown, 
Jaws just says 1 object(s) selected and the name of the folder.  If I use 
control space bar to deselect the document, then press insert pagedown, Jaws 
announces the number of files and the folder size, which I believe is what you 
want.
 
Cheers
Chris

Subject: Reading the status line in folders


Hi!
 
I'd like to know what to do when I'm in the my documents folder, or any folder 
for that matter, in order to get JAWS to read out the number of files and
the total size when I press the insert + page-down key to read the status line. 
 For instance, whereas before it would say X objects, X mb, all I get now
is the name of the last document which I assume is on the screen.  Hope someone
can help.  Thank you.
