Hi Tom, I'm assuming that he is pressing enter on a desktop icon as well but, since I misunderstood his question before, I just want to understand it correctly. Fred I have a question for you if this the case. Let's say that for example that the the icon on your desktop is labeled Internet Explorer. If you press enter on the Internet Explorer icon, Jaws is reporting, Internet shortcut, is this what's happening? Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool.

If so, highlight the, Internet shortcut, press the F2 key for editing, so you can edit this icon to have Jaws read it exactly the way you want. I hope I'm understanding your question correctly. If not , a hard slap will bring me around! LOL, hahaha hahaha hahaha, LOL Take care.

Is there anyway I can get jaws to announce only the icon but not say internet shortcut? Hopefully, I have made myself clear.
