Can you explain this to me please? I mean from the ground up, as I don't uderstand it at all. alternatively point me at the area in the manual and I'll take it from there.

For the CD archive we use Cue/Flac file pairs - the author of Ez CD Converter calls this a disc image now - but it seems that all the parameters for setting this mode have all gone? Perhaps they're cleverly hidden away somewhere and - as you say - the interface is prone to changing on a regular basis. I'm not complaining about the $49 I paid, EZ CD Converter has its frustrations but I do know how to use the mouse with my Screen Reading package - after all! that's why JAWS and so on provide mouse navigation keys and the like so you can access products such as EZ CD Converter - <smile>.
