Thanks David. Of course, I could run right out and buy the latest of
everything--a frightening prospect; but I think what I have should work on
this machine as well as it does on aabout six others that I'm using.
When I'm running Duxbury (10.4), JAWS tells me that the default settings are
loaded when I do an Insert+Q. Are there not Duxbury script files that come
with JAWS? Looking in the JAWS folders in Settings (for JAWS 5.0 and 5.1),
I find filies named DBTW.JCF and DBTW.JBS, both with a size of 0 bytes.
These seem to be the only files that relaate to Duxbury. I guess I'll check
some of the other computers in our lab and find out why they work.
Any other reasonable suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks.

: Hi Howard:
:
: Caryn is our "doctor of JAWS script files". She will be at work in about
an
: hour. In the meantime, I will try to give an answer.
:
: Only with DBT 10.5 did Duxbury really work on JAWS script files. This work
: continued with DBT 10.6. DBT 10.6 came out just after JAWS 7, so the JAWS
: script files for DBT 10.6 support JAWS 7.
:
: Since we anticipated that many people may want to use DBT 10.5 with JAWS
7,
: we have a mechanism to deliver this one piece of DBT 10.6 (i.e. the new
: JAWS script files) to DBT 10.5 users.
:
: For those that are interested, run DBT 10.5 and use the "check for
updates"
: in the DBT help menu. If you have installed DBT 10.5 SR2, you get a
message
: about how to load the new JAWS script files.
:
: Now Howard, none of this applies to you, since you have DBT 10.4. My
: recommendation is for a JAWS user to advance to DBT 10.5 or 10.6 to take
: advantage of Caryn Navy's considerable skill in writing JAWS script files.
:
: I know this is not what you want to hear. If you contact JAWS users with
: DBT 10.5 or 10.6, you will find out how much work has been put into making
: all the pieces work together.
:
: Might I say, that this is very, very much on topic. Duxbury Systems is
: committed to making DBT as easy to use as possible. But this has to be
done
: by working as much as possible with our current software.
:
: For the record, DBT 10.4 was first issued on May 9, 2002; DBT 10.5 was
: first issued on Aug 23, 2004; and DBT 10.6 is less than a month old.
