Paul, voice adjustment isn't in configuration manager. It's an option in the 
jaws voices menu.
  Go to Jaws on your desktop and press enter on it. That will open the jaws 
menu. Arrow right and you'll be on basics, then down once will put you on voice 
adjustment. Press enter on that. You will then be given options either to make 
an individual voice adjustment or a global adjustment.
                    John.

  Thanks for that but having pressed insert 6, I can't find global adjustment 
so could you please tell me how I get to this.

  Thanks 

  Paul.

    A quick way to change it is with insert 2. Otherwise, open the Jaws 
settings centre (insert 6), choose whether to make the change globally 
(default) or choose the application you want the change to affect, Tab to User, 
expand it and make your selection from there.

    HTH,
    Amro

      Hi all,

      Now using JAWS version 12 with XP.

      I am for some reason having trouble getting JAWS to make this change 
      permenant and wonder if anyone can tell me how to do this correctly as 
the 
      repeading of characters is driving me mad.

      In JAWS, I selected voices and then the voice I wanted to change and then 
      went down the list of optoins available to me.

      When I arrived at the speaking Characters, I pressed the spacebar which 
      toggled me through just words and words and characters.

      I can change it but if I should go out of Outlook and then return and 
type 
      another Email, JAWS is once again speaking characters.

      Any help would be most welcome.

      Paul.
