>of
>the folder name.

>(CTRL+SHIFT+V) and the Copy Items dialog box (CTRL+SHIFT+Y), JAWS no
>longer

>Say
>Line command (INSERT+UP ARROW). Previously, JAWS would announce blank.

>ALT+T, W in Word 2007 or Word 2003 documents.

>with
>the read new line character function turned on. The User Reads Text
>Containing New Line Character check box is in the Text Processing dialog
>box
