With Jaws 11 and XP, I got to them on my C drive, program files, Fifi 
Scientific, shared, Real Speak Solo, etc.

I reached a point where I could have changed a name with the F2, but have no 
reason to.

  Adrian,

  I actually suspect that the names are hard-coded into the files, so that 
changing the file name may not do anything. Not sure -- just a guess.

    Dave, just a thought or two about point 5.

    Typically, to change the name of a file or folder, highlight it in a list 
and press F2, which sets up an edit field. However, even if that were possible 
in this case (I don't know either way because I haven't bothered downloading 
RealSpeak voices), it would probably be unwise to make such a change with these 
voices. It could disrupt the programming syntax, if that's the right lingo.

    1. When I go to realspeak voices and want to download them do I run the 
instalation file or do I save it and than run it from my computer? Recommend 
you save and run from the computer.

    2. if I suppose to save it and run it later where do I save it to?

    Anywhere you would like. These are just executables that you launch -- they 
do the rest.

    3. how do I instal the voices?

    Run each executable and sit back and wait until done.

    4. how do I uninstal the voices that I no longer want?

    Delete them using Control Panel add/remove programs.

    5. how do I rename the voice let us say that I called it george and now I 
want to call it matt how do I rename it?

    I don't think you can.

    Hello listers: I have few more questions: let us say that I want to try out 
different voices so what do I do?
    1. When I go to realspeak voices and want to download them do I run the 
instalation file or do I save it and than run it from my computer?
    2. if I suppose to save it and run it later where do I save it to?
    3. how do I instal the voices?
    4. how do I uninstal the voices that I no longer want?
    5. how do I rename the voice let us say that I called it george and now I 
want to call it matt how do I rename it?
    Many thanks. Zdenek
