James, I found Narrator irritating but after a while I hit some particular list in which it asked me did I want to exit Narrator and so I got rid of it. Having achieved all this there are two things I still can't set. I want Jaws to speak numbers as single digits. I've checked this in the config manager but no luck yet the clock speaks in single digits. I want Jaws to speak words only. I've checked this but still no luck and I've tried both of these numerous times now. Steve
