Steve,
The difficulty I had (which may have had nothing to do with the merge
process, of course) was that AutoForms Mode could not be switched off
completely when off setting was saved via the JAWS Default config manager,
i.e., it would come back on upon re-entry into a form. . (This behaviour
was at variance with my understanding of how AutoForms Mode should function.
However, I seem to have fixed it with a re-install of JAWS10.) If it were
just a merge of DBT scripts and not a total settings merge, as it were, that
would be fine and the user would then know there was nothing else related
thereto as contributing to any JAWS malfunctioning problem they might
encounter. .

Flor,
I merged my JFW 9 settings when I started running version 10, and there were
no ill effects. Auto-forms mode is on by default, even though this feature
didn't exist in version 9. Merging did bring over the DBTW scripts, so that
wasn't a problem.
