hi Tony, WMP was not (or was not really) involved in my problems - which were very minor but irritating - in about November 06. (I think Duxbury was culpable; but when i fixed it I forgot about it and things have worked out ever since. It was about that time that I had first upgraded to WMP11.) Now, i'm going to fetch the url for the tutorial. There is not a whole lot of difference between the keystrokes you would use in either version 10 or version 11. I think he replaced his earlier tutorial for 10 with 11. I mainly use WMP for MP3 and on-line listening purposes - in other words, I use it where I can, it being my preferred audio player. Two URLS, actually, one to do with JAWS guides in general: http://vip.chowo.co.uk/jaws-guides/ and, for Windows Media Player (11) http://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/Windows-Media-Player-11-Guide.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tony Sweeney" <tonysweeney1@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <vicsireland@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, June 02, 2008 6:20 PM Subject: [vicsireland] Re: Windows Media Player Hi Flor, Just a clarification! Before you used WMP 11, were you using 9 or 10? I am just wondering what version of WMP might have been causing you grief! Is their a Jaws manual too for WMP 10 by the way?
