Along with the other OE problems I have been experiencing this week I can no longer read the status line while in the program. Until very recently jaws key plus the number 3 on the numerical keypad gave me infor mation such as; the number of new messages the number of unread messages receiving mail sending mail Now I ge information concerning my task bar such as the names of documents that are on it. Does anyone have a solution to this problem? Thanks, Judith
