Hi Kevin, Good to hear from you! I still appreciate how nicely you demystified CDex settings for me.
First of all, as I have said before, I'm not stranger to navigating around my own hard drive in Windows Explorer. Nor to cutting, copying and pasting. So don't worry about that, I get it. But here's the part that may amuse you and help you to see where my confusion comes from, at least partly: You say that I'll know I'm in the compilation files list where I want to place the files to be burned when I hear "ISO One" Or "Audio one (or with the numeral 1, whatever)?" Well, that's a new bit of info to me. I think I've heard something announced like that when tabbing around that dialogue or windows, you know the one, but I had no idea what that designated. It didn't say anything like '"Compilation," for example. I have no idea what people see visually when they're looking at this whole function, and it really frustrates me. Because in so many other, more clearly accessible programs, I can describe screen elements in the same terms as my sighted friends do, element for element. That's why I say this is weird for me. Difficult. In any case, I'll try it this way once and see if it helps. It wasn't that I couldn't copy files from the browser in the burn window, you see; I just couldn't figure out when I heard "list view" again whether it was the compilation window or not! Ack. Now Bruce, if you decide to withhold this message from the list and don't think it will benefit anyone else, please notify me so I can send it privately to this subscriber. Thank you very much. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kevin Lloyd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.

Simply start nero in the usual way and start a new compilation. Now start windows explorer using windows key + E and browse to your music folder. You can now tab back and forth between the two windows. JAWS will announce ISO1 or AUDIO1 when you're in the nero window and the name of the folder when you're in the windows explorer window. Use control + C to copy your track from your windows explorer window and alt + tab to the ISO1 or AUDIO1 window. As soon as you hear JAWS announce either of these, use control + V to paste the tracks into your compilation. Note that this method does not use the keystroke control + f1 as that is specific to the file browser. Regards.
