John Thanks, seems to work well. Will this work regardless of the type of file (i.e. system, hidden, etc?) Is this the primary intent of this option on the application key menu?

Press F6 to get to the AddressBar. 5. The path is already highlighted so just hit Control plus C to copy it to your clipboard.

Part of it sounded like it may be cut off due to it's length. Is there a way to copy that pathname and then paste it into notepad and read the entire thing or save for future reference? thanks Al For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
