Hi Grant,
I didn't have just an add button under the start menu tab so I clicked on
the customize button and found an add button there. I clicked on that and
typed Jaws6 in the box, but when I clicked the next button I got an error
telling me that Jaws6 couldn't be located. I then got out and went back in
and instead of typing Jaws6 in the box I clicked the brouse button and went
to the Freedom Scientific folder inside of the Program Files folder hoping
to find the Jaws6 executable because I figured that's what it couldn't find
the first time when I got the error but I couldn't find that anywhere
either. More help please?
Troy
