Hello Barbara,

I am currently using JFW 8.0.2173U with Reflections 13.0.  I have also used 
previous versions of Jaws with Reflections 10.0 with great success.  You will 
need to make some adjustments to Reflections before JFW will work well with it. 
 You need to set the cursor blink rate to fast.  You will also need to change 
the font to one such as Courier New.  The Freedom Scientific website support 
section has a write-up on the settings needed to make telecommunications 
software such as Reflections work best with JFW.  The only drawback is that 
when sighted people try to read your screen, the font is sometimes too small 
for them to see clearly.

Hope this helps.

Steve Parker

  Hello List,
  In a few weeks I will be changing jobs from a computer company where I use 
Attachmate's EXTRA to one that uses WRQ Reflection for IBM Version 11.0.
  I would like to hear from others who might be using this product with JAWS to 
learn of it's accessibility, what script files might be necessary, what version 
you are successfully using,  and any other helpful information you can provide.
  Always,
  Barbara Anne
