  Hi Jean.

  I re-named the templet as you suggested and it seems to have solved the 
problem. Thanks again.

  Damien.

    Damien, 

    Several things come to mind. Yeah, not enough memory might be it, or maybe 
you have too many processes running and system resources are low. 

    Also, if you check your Word verbosity settings with insert-V, you might 
try turning off any feedback items you don't need and see if that helps. In the 
Jaws Help, it says -- Tip: Turn off all Word specific verbosity settings to 
make Word more responsive. 

    It's also not uncommon for your normal.dot template to become corrupted. 
Among other things, this can cause Word to be sluggish. For Word 2003, go to 
C:\ documents and settings \ user name \ application data \ microsoft \ 
templats and rename your normal.dot file to normal.old Then reopen Word and 
Word will create a new fresh copy. If this fixes the problem, delete the 
normal.old file. If it doesn't and you want to return to using that file, 
delete the fresh normal.dot and rename the normal.old back to normal.dot. 

    This file is easily corrupted after system crashes or Word crashes and 
sometime for reasons unbeknownst. Sorry, I don't know if this same directory 
path and process applies to Word 2007. But my bet is a corrupt normal.dot file. 
Is Worde also slow to open?

      Hello everyone.

      I'm using jaws 8 with word 2007 and have to wait a few secondes for jaws 
to respond when I press the arrow keys. What I mean is that when I'm scroling 
through a document line by line, I press the down arrow key and then have t 
wait a few seconds before jaws speaks the text on that line. Come to think of 
it, I also had this problem when I used word 2003. Does anyone know of a way to 
speed the jaws response time up?

      Damien O'Connor.
