Mike,
 
I had this problem with an earlier version of JAWS. Fortunately my
script for a proprietary app never used the unknown function so I just
created a dummy function in my script with the same name. The function
did not do anything but it satisfied the compiler. 
 
You might also try copying that function (and whatever it calls or
references) to the Microsoft Word.jss and recompiling. The problem with
that is you will have to do it every time you change JAWS versions. That
is why I think that FS has to know about the problem. 
 
Alice

        Mike,
         
        The script Microsoft Word.jss "uses" the compiled version of
WordCommon.jss. It shouldn't need to be recompiled as you already know.
Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing JAWS to correct what seems
to be corrupted code?
        Back up your custom scripts to another folder. After you
uninstall, open Narrator, (Windows Key U) and take a look in your enu
folder and make sure all the scripts are cleared out. Then reinstall
JAWS and test Word before putting your custom scripts back into the
folder.
         
        If you still have the unknown function, download JAWS again or
call the FS tech help number knowing for sure that your scripts and
script changes are not the problem.
         
        Alice

                I have been having trouble with word giving me an
invalid function message when I bring it up. I asked about it on the
list a few days ago and someone told me that the function was defined in
Wordcommon.jss. I found it defined in there but Wordcommon.jss won't
compile because it has an invalid include for Word.hsh. I don't see any
source files named word.* on my machine and I don't think HSH is a valid
extension. Anyone got any ideas as to what goes there?
