Tom, I think I did just hit enter, but I only did it a couple of 
times so I will have to try again to verify what I did.  Sorry I 
don't remember zactly what I did.  It's like the guy asking, "So 
what key strokes were you using when your system crashed?" Yah 
right.  Ok, will try it later, in the middle of putting stuff in 
the recycle and green cans for pick up tomorrow.  Just taking a 
break from that.  73, Jim WA6EKS

Jim:

Did you just hit enter on the e-mail tab when you got there, or 
do something
else?

Enter doesn't work for me at least with Jaws 13 and Windows XP.

 Tom, don't know about missing a step when looking for email, 
just
 know that it worked for me using WindowEyes yesterday and I was
 surprised when it worked.  Jim WA6EKS

 Jim:

 I have not needed to modify my bio or QRZ details lately, so am
 not sure how
 accessible that is now.

 Regarding the issue of accessing e-mail addresses, I can get to
 the field
 that says e-mail on mouse clickable, but nothing seems to happen
 when I hit
 enter on it.

 Am I missing a step?

 Tom, have you tried to modify your details or bio section? I
 wonder if it can be done.  I also logged into QRZ and was able
 to
 get email addresses which I don't remember being able to do in
 the past so that's cool.  Jim WA6EKS

 Hi, all.

 Since I'm the one that started the whole qrz.com access thread
 on
 Friday, I
 feel compelled to give an update on what I have found as I've
 tried a few
 quick experiments here.

 First, it is helpful to know that the qrz.com call search link
 is
 the one
 toward the top of the page.

 While logged in, and being sure the screen was maximized in
 Jaws,
 I did a
 search for, and accessed my own basic call info with no problem.

 So, that's a good step in the right direction.

 However, I'm still having trouble consistently accessing the
 "details" tab.
 There are three tabs--biography, details, and log a contact
 with.
 However,
 accessing the tab you want is really hit or miss.

 I have to try it many times before happening to land on the
 details tab
 info, even though Jaws says I'm on that particular tab every
 time.

 I think Steve or someone else said they had the same problem.

 I'm not sure how much more I'll be able to do with this before
 leaving
 tomorrow, but I'll try to check e-mail at least once or twice
 more before
 the day is over.
