Rich,
I was glad to see your question.
I found myself in the same situation.
I knew how to use this feature....but, found that it did not work with my
current set up....as I had known it to work.
I followed the first set of directions that Victor gave...and they worked.
I went into the Favorites menu then hit the applications button.
There is a list of commands from which you may choose.
I am working from a lap top, so, my location of the applications key is at a
different place than a desk top layout. But, the directions worked the
same.

I tried this but could not find the "sort by" button.
While in I.E. I hit the menu bar to get to "favorites" then hit the
application key. This didn't work.
So, I hit on "organize" then hit the application key.
Every way I tried, I could not arrow or tab to get the "sort by" button.
Would that button be anywhere else?
Thanks again.
Rich

Hi Rich,
Just open up the favourites menu, then press the applications key to the
left of the right control key.
Once you do this, Jaws may not speak that the applications menu is open,
but don't worry, just arrow up or down and you'll find it is open.
Once you find that it is open, just arrow up to sort by, then arrow to
name and press enter.
This will organize your favourites menu into alphabetical order.
If, on the other hand you want to place them in folders, I would suggest
you do it via the favourites folder on your hard drive, as opposed to
doing it through the menus.
I just find it easier and less frustrating.
To do this, just go into your my computer, under the c: drive, then into
documents and settings, then to your name, or the name of the default
user on the computer, usually, that's your name, then pressing enter on
the favourites folder. At this point you'll be able to create folders
and move your existing favourites into existing folders just by cutting
and pasting.
Again, this is just my preference, and others may find it easier another
way.
Victor
