Hi Ray,I will indeed try Firefox - had meant to anyway, and this gives me a little shove.
Well according to JAWS this is a combobox and so it isn't announcing levels as it would in a tree view - it's treating it as a combobox; and all the levels seem to be automatically opened when you first go into it.

I wouldn't disuade you Catherine from trying Firefox. Nonetheless, their must be a stting in JAWS you can tweak to identify when you're on a folder, and there are enough knowledgable JFW users here to sort that one out. Cheers, From Ray I can be contacted off-list at: mailto:ray-48@xxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- Catherine Turner Hi Ray, Thanks for the explanation. Hmmmm I don't like this at all since JAWS isn't reporting levels so it's just like one combobox and the way JAWS works with it I can't tell what level things are at. Maybe this is the trigger I needed to try firefox...

Not that I access favorites this way. I usually simply type 'favorites' in the run dialogue box and navigate as in whateverfolderview you have set up. Of course you can put more favorites in there while you are about it if you have the link in question. Cheers, From Ray I can be contacted off-list at: mailto:ray-48@xxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- Of Ray's Home Catherine, I've just looked and what happens is that if you have already created a file structure the whole tree of the structure is automatically opened so that the whole tree view is available. I found this when I did alt-down arrow. whence the whole list opensoutdown the screen. Of course there is a create new folder option in the dialogue too. HTH From Ray I can be contacted off-list at: mailto:ray-48@xxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- Of Catherine Turner Aha, ok...so now I'm wondering since it's a combobox, how do we openafolder within a folder...

Other than doing an alt-down-arrow to go down the list, I'll leave it to others to advise re. useful JFW navigation. (I use Firfox almost all the time now, so I've become rusty withIE7.)From Ray I can be contacted off-list at: mailto:ray-48@xxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- Of Catherine Turner I've just upgraded to Internet Explorer 7. When I just added a favourite I had some trouble finding the right folder in the list. JAWS saysit'sa combobox, but I'm not sure whether it's behaving like a tree viewornot. Also when I pressed the first letter of the folder I wanted to use nothing seemed to happen. Can anyone explain how the add favourite dialog works in IE7?
