I think the following will fix your problem...
Go to control panel
Next, go to folder options
Then go to view tab
Tab to "files and folders"
right arrow to open tree view
arrow down to "use check boxes to select items" - select off
Tab to okay and hit enter
That will get rid of those checkboxes after things on the desktop, I think
that is what you are trying to do, if I understood your question correctly.
Good luck,
Scott

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Windows Vista Settings Dealing With Lists
Hello To All;
I am assisting a relatively new screen reader/computer user via the phone.
He is running Vista 64 bit on a Dell laptop. What I hear while on the
desktop or in any other list is the name of the list item followed by the
statement "Checked" or "Not Checked." For instance, while using the arrow
keys through the desktop icons, it says Recycle bin not checked;
WordPerfect Checked; and so on. I have Vista myself and will search
through the settings, but if anyone here knows the answer I would
appreciate it. I attempted to Google this inquiry but the search terms
used yielded no answer. Sure there was just about every other possible
answer for problems not our own provided by Google, but no luck locating
the info I sought.
Thanks,
Mauricio
