Hi, Jonathan. In some cases, the problem you're experiencing with text
being truncated in file names may be Windows based and not tied to what
spech program you are using. For example, when you use Explorer or the Find
Files options, files and their file names may be truncated, for example,
c:\jfw32\jfwj.... If you press the control key and the plus key on the
number pad, this will increase the column size in windows to fit the largest
column currently displayed on the screen. I use this with customers when
I'm on the phone with them assisting them with printer installations, so
this is not somehting just for JAWS.
If I'm way off base here and this has nothing to do with what you were
talking about, I apologize.-:)
