Cindy, A "jump list" is the latest term for a feature that used to be on the Start Menu in Windows 7. If you hear a jump list is present (and I'd imagine to access it from JAWS you'll probably use the right arrow key, but I'm not sure) it means that a list of the files you've most recently used will appear in a "sub menu" of sorts if you click on the arrow to the right of the app/program you're clicking on. In the olden days it was known as the Most Recently Used (MRU) list. It's a somewhat truncated version of the Recent Files feature in many Windows programs that allows you to open these files directly from the start menu.
The list does, of course, change depending on what files you've been working with most recently. Brian
