Hi Jay, Have u tried to install jdk? I was unable to install - it's a windows version and only accessible thing in the setup I found was the exit confirmation window (it appears when you press alt+f4). Does it require some java access bridge sort of thing preinstalled to be accessible? On 10/19/09, Macarty, Jay {PBSG} <Jay.Macarty@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > I use no add-on scripts for Eclipse with Jaws.
