Ok Mike,
Follow these steps:
1. press insert plus J to get the jaws' options dialog. then arrow down
to utilities and press enter. Arrow down till you reach jaws
configuration manager and hit enter.
2. Once inside the configuration window, hit alt plus s to open the
settings' menu, then hit the letter v to open the verbosity dialog.
You'll land on a set of radio buttons that controls which verbosity
level you want to set. You should know beforehand which level of
verbosity you are on. Then tab to the preferences of the level you want
to change. As you might know, jaws offers 3 verbosity levels: beginner,
intermediate and advanced. Press enter on the button you want to modify
its options and a new dialog will pop up.
3. Now, hit the letter T to jump to a checkBox called toolTip and check
it with space. tab to Ok and press enter. You are back in the first
dialog, tab to ok and hit space bar to close it.
4. Press control plus s to save your modifications and hit alt plus F4
to close the configuration window.
Remember, you should use the verbosity level which you modified not
another one. I mean, if you have checked the toolTip for the beginner
level, the new changes will effect your jaws behavior only if you are
using that verbosity level.
Now, whenever yu land on a file or folder while arrowing, you'll hear a
banch of information to that file or folder. However, give jaws room to
announce those informatio...
Hope that helps, otherwise, feel free to contact me on skype, will sort
that out with you
Regards

Hi mike,
There is another way to get a good amount of information about the files
you are arrowing while in a folder, including the bitrate, lenth, size...
You just have to check a checkbox in the jaws configuration manager
untitled toolTips, once you do so, you will be able to hear a lot of
information related to the file you are on without need to look up its
properties. However, i noticed that it says the run time only for the
MP3 files not for RM files. Try it and see whether you like it or not...
Good luck

Yeah Mike, you should try Winamp, it's the most powerful media player
in terms of accessibility and the many features it offers. You won't
regret...

Hi Scorpio:
Thank you very much for the great tips. This makes me almost want to
switch
to WinAmp. I'm currently running WMP11. But, I will definitely save
these
steps in case I make the switch. Thanks again, take care.
Mike

Hi Mike,
You can easily accomplish this by highlighting all the songs you want to
find the total time of, either using the shift up and down arrows, or
the
control and up or don arrow then control+spacebarring on the tracks
you want
to include in your calculations.
Once done, it's just a matter of using Winamp to your advantage.
Once you've highlighted all the files, press your applications key, then
press the letter "P": for the play in Winamp option and it will
either play
right away, or you'll have to hit enter, depending on what you've
highlighted.
So, now that the tracks are playing, and assuming you're in the
Winamp main
window, pause the playback with the spacebar, then control+tab to the
playlist window.
If you find that it isn't open, press alt+E to open it, then perform the
control+tab to go to that window.
Once in that window, press control+alt+G to create an html file of your
playlist.
This playlist will contain each track listing, it's play time, and
the total
playlist playtime in it, at which point, you can choose to save the
information in the playlist, or simply discard it and use various other
options at your disposal.
If you'd like to add other folders or files to the playlist because
you feel
that the playlist isn't long enough, press shift+L or just the L key
to add
the folders and files, respectively, at which point, you can use the
control+alt+G command to get the track list and the information again.
HTH.
Scorpio
