Hi Brian & Rich; I am running XP Home with Jaws 10 & 11 latest. After pressing control + O, shift tabbing back to list view, opening My Documents, making sure that nothing is selected, pressing the applications key, I arrow down and " arrange by " is right there. Take care. Mike

Unfortunately, I am not at a system with XP Home but I know that with XP Professional the "arrange by" choice is present. Make sure that after using CTRL with O to bring up the open dialog box and that after you use shift with tab to move into the list view that there is nothing selected. If a file or folder name is selected then the context menu that you get when using the application key will have choices specific to that file or folder. If JAWS doesn't say "not selected" then try using CTRL with spacebar to take the selection off of the file or folder. Of course, if nothing is selected and you use the CTRL with spacebar command then you will be selecting as it is a toggle command. When nothing is selected then use the application key and check for a choice with a submenu that would have to do with setting the order of the list such as the "arrange by" or "sort by." If you don't find such a menu then perhaps someone else with XP home can give you a suggestion. Take care.
