Never had that happen. I'm not sure what to do. There are some windows 7 podcasts at http://www.blind-geek-zone.net. Maybe they'll have an answer to this.

I am using jaws11, though; I downloaded and authorized it today from the fs website, so it is definitely the latest one. Now, it almost always starts repeating seemingly random desktop icons and bits of titles of open or minimized windows. I am not sure why it does this, and it seems to be when I close or minimize something, but it is getting quite annoying!

Using the left/right arrows in windows explorer with jaws 11 does not repete the file name, along with several other improvements.

Jaws now reports that all my Windows Explorer windows, such as when browsing files or floders, are "extended select lists" instead of the "listview" that I have been used to since win98. Is there a way to force Windows to use a listview for this GUI control, or can I trick Jaws into thinking that it is a listview? I mainly want this back because (A) it is less for jaws to say when a folder opens before it reads me the first item, and (B) I miss being able to press ins-ctrl-number to hear the detail associated with the number pressed. I thought that, if I was going to be stuck with a multi-select listbox I could use Jaws's multi-select mode to select multiple items more easily, but that does not even work, so it seems pointless to keep it this way if I can change it. I realize I can use right/left arrows to move through details, but jaws usually repeats the filename before speaking the highlighted detail, which gets on my nerves after a bit. Any help/suggestions would be great, and sorry if this is considered off topic.__________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind
