Hi scripters,

Do somebody have any experience with the SwitchhToConfiguration function 
in JAWS Basic? It seems me that is do not work properly. It takes only 
one argument, which is the name of the configuration to switch. And it 
returns a boolean integer, which signs only whether the passed string as 
config name was a valid string or an empty string.

In the documentation of the function in FSDN is mentioned, that the 
following types of files compose a configuration:

Configuration (JCF),
Keymap (JKM),
Script (JSB),
Dictionary (JDF),
Graphics (JGF),
Symbols (JBS)
Frame (JFF).

My problem is that it seems this function does not work anyway. I tried 
to pass the name of a "full" configuration, ie. which has all types of 
files mentioned above, or the name of one, which has only a dictionary 
file. It works in neither case. The configuration remained unchanged. I 
tried to find any usage of this function in the original FS scripts, but 
Idid not find any example. Do have somebody used it and could me help, 
how to use it to get it working?

Thanks in advance!

Csaba
