It would certainly be easier if that worked. My solution is to press shift + 
tab until I get to the list view. Then I can type the first letter, or several 
letters if I want, and I'll get fairly close. Hope this helps.

Londa,

            Thanks so much.  What will be funny is if it behaves the same way 
in 2013, because what I'm using with this client and what I have on my own 
machine and this client has on hers.

            Over time I've actually been surprised at what JAWS chooses, and 
doesn't choose, to read at various points.  In JAWS 14 (I haven't retried in 
JAWS 17) if you are in a browse dialog and entered the first character or two 
of a file name you typically get the equivalent of a dropdown box that lists 
all the files in that folder that begin with those characters.  However, when 
you use down arrow to go through that list of files JAWS did not say a blessed 
thing.  If ever there were a place where announcement is needed, that's it.

Brian
