ah super! i'll try that. I've also meet some problems of shortcut when vo is working with win and jaws. I've an old version of vmware : the 3.x and some options are not working with Lion or too slow for me... I know that the new one is better but I didn't want to buy it. No I need it for my job... I didn't new the shortcuts and method that you explain. I'm happy to know them.
