Craig,
Somehow I missed this note. Is there a specific document that isn't working that you could send to me? I would like to see if the same thing is happening with
Window-Eyes, for one thing. If you are saying that you are having a common problem with words running together, I think we should make sure we're not talking
about some kind of JFW bug.
