Hi Tim
If you don't wish to upgrade to Jaws 3.3,
jfw3.2 will work with Lotus Notes but you will need some scripts which are available
free
from teh HJ website.
with warmest, Christian regards,
Harry Bassler

Hi,
My advice, is also to upgrade to a more up-to-date version of jfw.
I don't use jfw with braille so am no use there, but the good news is that
jfw 3.31 will support Lotus Notes r 5 so you'll need jfw 3.31 to have any
hope in using Notes. I believe that 3.31 will be out in the next six weeks
or so.
Also, if you upgrade, you'll get the training tapes etc.
I find ie 4.01 or ie 5.0 to be the best browsers to use with jaws.
Cheers,
Tim

Sean, my advice would be to contact Henter-Joyce with this one. Their phone
number is 1-800-336-5658 and ask for Tec support.
I, personally, have never been too successful at getting jfw to work with
Lotus Notes--maybe others here have.
One thing that would really be helpful, I think, would be to upgrade to a
later version of jfw. JFW3.2.09 is probably a couple of years old, and a
lot of advances have come out since then.
Hope this helps,
Bob
p.s. if I can be further help, you can write me privately at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
