MessageJAWS 9 has been a lot more stable than 10 is, but I would agree that 
JAWS 8 was also stable, so I did point out it was the only discrepancy in my 
statement.

  AS for odd numbered JAWS versions, I thought I heard that JAWS 9 was pretty 
funky.

    K,

    Have you thought of adding the LeftAlt+DownArrow to your key manager list 
to also have it perform the function?

    Not sure because I'm not JAWS 10, I'm waiting for the next odd-numbered 
JAWS revision.

    Sad to say it seems to me that the most resilient JAWS versions since JAWS 
3.5 seem to all have been odd-numbered, with the exception that JAWS 8 was 
pretty stable, as well. Strange.

    Dave

      Guys,
          Has anyone noticed that in JAWS 10.0.1154, when you choose an 
alternate Say All, in order to use the default Say All voice and override your 
alternate say all in a given case, you must press the right hand alt key before 
pressing insert down arrow. That's a drag because it's much easier to press the 
left alt key and then press insert down arrow in desktop layout with the right 
hand.  Any idea why overriding default say all has to be invoked with the right 
hand alt key and not the left?
      Kevin
