Hi David,
Sometimes when I run the find command with the JAWS cursor and then
return to the pc cursor, it acts like it cannot quite regain the focus. Is
this normal? Do I need to follow the find command with some type of other
command to help the PC cursor get focus easier?
Thank you for your help.
God bless,
Mark
