IN Internet explorer there is an option that controls this.

Something like 'reuse old windows' I am sure it is in the advanced area.

The default behavior is to use an open IE window.

Good afternoon Bryan,

If JAWS is currently focused on an IE window and I use that function will it 
change the page in that window, or open a new window?

Thanks,
Everett
