I did arrow right to the open and save buttons, and when I hit save it asked if I wanted to remove the item from the list. But, I checked my downloads folder and the file was there, twice, in fact. So I guess it is downloading automatically and I didn't realize it. Norma -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike B.

Also, sometimes a download link takes you to the Dropbox website, & when this happens you need to arrow down the page to get to the download button. Take care. Mike Sent from my iBarstool.
