Allan, 

Rather than bother this entire list about your specific
Window-Eyes CD question please email orders at gwmicro.com or
call us now at +1 260-489-3671 and work with us directly.
However I will add that your CD was mailed on October 24 so
you should have received it by now.

Dan

Hi Guys, just a quick question, are you sending out cd
versions of the
version 7 as usual, as I have not received mine as yet.

I have moved home, but am sure I informed you of my new
address.

Cheers

GW Micro is proud to announce the official release of
Window-Eyes 7.01.

Thanks to customer feedback and the tireless efforts of the
Window-Eyes
Error Reporting feature (and those who choose to send in
error reports)
Window-Eyes 7.01 boasts more stability, reliability, and
performance
than ever before.

Window-Eyes scripting is changing the accessible landscape
of computers,
and the increased stability that Window-Eyes 7.01 provides
means being
able to spend more time focusing on script development.
Window-Eyes 7.01
also resolves several issues that affected localized
versions of
Window-Eyes, and has increased Window-Eyes marketability
across the globe.

While Window-Eyes 7.01 is a minor upgrade, it packs a
significant punch
including a few new features along with several bug fixes. A
complete
list of all changes is included below.

Window-Eyes 7.01 is a FREE upgrade to Window-Eyes 7.0 users.
To install
Window-Eyes 7.01, you must already have a working copy of
Window-Eyes
7.0 installed (Retail, Demo, Evaluation, Dongle, Everlock,
and
LTO/Payment Plan versions are all supported). To download
the upgrade,
select the "Window-Eyes Update" option from the Window-Eyes
Help menu,
or navigate directly to www.gwmicro.com/upgrade </upgrade>,
and enter
your serial number manually.

If you have any questions or comments please contact us at
support at gwmicro.com <mailto:support at gwmicro.com>, or via
phone at
260-489-3671.

Enjoy!


   Enhancements between Window-Eyes 7.01 and Window-Eyes 7.0

We have resolved several memory leaks, and fixed several
stability
issues thanks to the Window-Eyes error reporting feature.
Window-Eyes
7.01 is a significant improvement over Window-Eyes 7.0 in
terms of
stability and responsiveness.

We fixed a problem where Window-Eyes could hang while
leaving and
entering Browse mode quickly.

We fixed a problem where list boxes were not reading
correctly in Visual
Studio 2005/2008.

We fixed a a problem where Browse Mode would not refresh
when a link was
activated in Firefox 3.

Many upper Unicode characters (most above 7fh) were not
getting
translated correctly in English grade 2 braille. This
problem has been
resolved.

If the user profile path contained Unicode characters that
didn't map
into ANSI, you were not able to install script package
files. This
problem has been resolved.

Window-Eyes would only read part of words with upper Unicode
characters
in PowerPoint 2003.  This problem has been resolved.

Added the WEUpdate script to the factory default scripts.
This script
will automatically check for Window-Eyes updates and let you
know if
there is an update available.


       iTunes

We resolved several issues relating to iTunes, including
support for
using the Window-Eyes Find command while in the iTunes
store, resolving
the issue of not being able to activate links using the
Insert-Tab
dialog, resolving the double reading in listviews and
treeviews,
speaking expanded and collapsed when you open and close tree
view nodes,
speaking the pull down menus correctly under Windows Vista,
and
resolving a problem where set files could not be associated
to the
iTunes window (or any window whose title was null). In
addition,
Window-Eyes does not automatically enable Browse Mode when
the iTunes
Store option is selected, meaning you can successfully arrow
through all
of the main items without suddenly getting tossed into
Browse Mode.


       Scripting

If Window-Eyes is localized in a language that a script was
not
localized in, the hotkeys won't work because they're not
localized to
the Window-Eyes language. To resolve this issue, we have
added a new
property to the Key object called UntranslatedName. From now
on, our
policy is to hard code default hotkey names in your script,
always in
English, even if you are writing the script in another
language, because
Window-Eyes will always be able to interrupt English hotkey
names. They
can still be displayed to the user in the script language,
but they
should be stored in INI files, and in scripts as English.
This way no
matter what language Window-Eyes is localized in, or what
languages the
script you are trying to use is localized in, the hotkeys
will always
work. Once again, default hotkey names should not exist in
the XML
resource, because they should never be localized.
Keyboard.Key will
accept both Key.Name and Key.Unstranslated name. Refer to
the
documentation for more information.

Added Mouse.ButtonDownEx and Mouse.ClickEx methods. Both
methods provide
the ability to enhance their respective functions with key
modifiers. In
addition, ClickEx fixes a problem of interrupting speech
after
performing the mouse click.

If a null string was returned through various Speech event
handlers,
speech would get disabled. This was mainly a problem with
Visual Basic
which would return null for speech events that weren?t
specifically
hooked.  This problem has been resolved.

The scripting error dialog would sometimes pass a blank
string for the
error description. Now, if Window-Eyes cannot retrieve the
error
description, a default message will be used rather than
displaying a
blank string.

You can now use language id strings in the XML resource,
such as "en" or
"en-us" instead of having to use a hexadecimal number.

If was possible for a script to not successfully restart,
but you would
still hear the restart message. This problem has been
resolved.

We fixed a problem where scripts could error when invoking
Keyboard.Registerhotkey on launch.

We fixed a problem where you couldn't Control or Shift-Click
using the
keyboard (meaning you couldn't tap the Control key and then
press the
Left Mouse button hotkey to perform a left click).

We fixed a version comparison problem when installing script
package files.

Window-Eyes now ensures that any read only attributes on
script files
being installing, uninstall, or used when created packages
are cleared.
This resolved a problem of script files not getting
installed, or
removed correctly.

The Window-Eyes Scripting Manual has been updated.
