Dale,
I think you've got a problem with this.  Please don't take it out on me.  I 
asked respectful questions on a list where I had every reason to imagine 
that someone might know and be willing to share something about these two 
commands.  I don't need to disable the command, but you're only being 
sarcastic to mention that.  I'm sorry now that I bothered to help you with a 
problem recently when I was able to.  Please stop responding to this thread. 
I'm not pursuing it any further myself, either, except that people continue 
to post interesting comments about it.

James, please do not blame me for responding in a decourous way to posts 
like the below.  Thanks.

Thank you very much,
Daniel

Perhaps the Jaws "find" command is simply available in all applications =
including Internet Explorer. I do not know how it is implemented, =
perhaps in the scripts, if so and it is of such importance to you then =
look it up and comment it out or remove it altogether and recompile the =
script for IE then you don't have to have that functionality in IE.

Another and probably more useful way of divining the correct answer =
would be to ask it of Freedom Scientific. It should be clear to you, it =
certainly has been clear to me since about thirty messages ago that no =
one monitoring this list for the past day or so has the faintest notion =
why Freedom Scientific have not deliberately excluded that functionality =
from the one application in which it is so offensive to you and many =
didn't even get your point!
