Hi Jackie
Do you per chance have a copy of the Default script source in your JAWS user
file. I know I have been bit by that several times. If so, it wouldn't be
the one from the latest release. You can choose open shared file from the file
menu in script manager to see the JAWS supplied script.

Subject: [jawsscripts] Re: collection datatype
The "about Jaws" dialog says I have that version. This script is not here. What
the firetruck is going on here? I feel like I've just stepped into the twilight
zone. I truly do not understand this! Surely I'm missing something--but what?
This could prove to be truly embarrassing when all is said & done. I am totally
weirded out! I don't use researchIt or aim. Maybe I'll modify the install & see
if there are some scripts that haven't been installed yet? But that truly makes
no sense!
