Subject: Update to JAWS 7.1 Now Available

The second automatic update for JAWS 7.10, released on
November 8, 2006,
contains fixes for issues we addressed for our 7.10
customers. It also
includes minor modifications for Microsoft Internet
Explorer 7. While the
previous JAWS 7.10 update works well with Internet
Explorer 7, it is
recommended that anyone installing Internet Explorer 7
also update to the
latest JAWS 7.10 update.

Note: This update is intended for Windows XP with
service pack 2. Internet
Explorer 7 does not work with Windows 2000, Windows
98, or Windows ME.

To install this update on a computer with JAWS 7.10
and Windows XP, open the
JAWS Help menu and choose Check for Updates. If you do
not have Windows XP,
or the automatic update is unavailable to you, please
download the full
version of JAWS 7.10.500 and install it to update your
software.

The following is a list of items that were fixed in
this update:

. Resolved a longstanding issue related to certain
video cards, where text
that had scrolled by the mouse pointer may no longer
be read by JAWS.
. Fixed an Internet Explorer 7 issue where navigating
the drop-down list of
certain combo boxes in a Web page using the UP ARROW
or DOWN ARROW keys,
JAWS would not always read the selected item.
. Fixed the Typing Echo function, which would not work
in an Adobe Reader
form opened using Internet Explorer 7.
. JAWS now supports multiple user desktops, which
solves an issue for the
Cisco Secure Desktop application.
. Fixed the issue where switching between Eloquence
and SAPI 4 synthesizers
resulted in a crash.
. Fixed an issue where using the TAB key to move about
a Web page, and
downloading files from a Web page would cause Internet
Explorer to crash.
. JAWS correctly speaks Microsoft Access form buttons.
. In Microsoft Excel, if the text in a worksheet cell
wraps to form multiple
lines, you can now use the Excel F2 function key and
the UP ARROW and DOWN
ARROW keys to hear JAWS speak individual lines. In
previous releases, JAWS
would read the entire cell contents.
. Fixed a problem when selecting text from right to
left in NotePad failed
if Enhanced Edit was turned on in this application.
. When localizing screen sensitive help messages into
French, the following
characters are no longer reversed: a and q; w and z.
. Resolved issues regarding the Japanese keyboard
layout and the CAPS LOCK
key.
. Added a new keystroke, INSERT+WINDOWS+F4, which
Support Staff can use with
customers to terminate JAWS and all related processes
while creating a
memory dump file for JAWS at the same time. This will
help with further
diagnosis in the future if problems arise. The file
containing the JAWS
version number will be saved to:
C:\Documents and Settings\[your user
name]\ApplicationData\Freedom
Scientific\JAWS\7.10\Settings\JAWSMemDmp

Have fun, and enjoy IE 7, it's a really worthwhile upgrade.
