Hello Daniel. What you are missing is the person made a change to the default dictionary file and they did not remember what the original entry was. So I suggested they delete their modified copy of the default dictionary file. I hope this helps. Chris. -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Yardbird Sent: Monday, January 08, 2007 3:05 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Dictionary Manager Adrian, as I recall, you can just launch the dictionary, press control shift d if you want to be in the default file (as I always do; why would I want someone's name pronounced properly in one application but not in another?) and then, instead of adding a new pronunciation, which is the default control you first land on,tab to the control that gets you into a list of the items you've created and then, if i remember correctly, you can alter them or delete them, individually. but you probably know that yourself. Maybe I'm missing the point? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Adrian Spratt" <A.Spratt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, January 08, 2007 11:37 AM Subject: Re: Dictionary Manager Chris, This is useful information, and I thought about suggesting something along these lines to Kerry, but I had the impression he was asking how to restore the default for a single entry. I don't think that can be done, or can it? Perhaps the original entry can be found through shared settings? I mean that as a question. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Jenkins" <saveup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Hello Kerry. To revert back to the factory default dictionary file open the start menu, programs, the Jaws group you are interested in changing, explore jaws, explore my settings. This will open your personal settings folder where you can look for default.JDF. Once you have this file highlighted you can delete the file. Jaws for Windows will no longer see this file in your personal settings folder so it will use the copy from within the shared settings folder. All of this assumes that you were smart and did not overwrite the copy that was in the shared settings directory. By default the dictionary manager will first check and see if there is a file in the personal settings folder and if there is not a file in the personal settings folder it will read from the file from the shared settings folder. Once the changes are made it will write the modified file to your personal settings folder. I hope this helps. Chris. -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Kari Young Sent: Monday, January 08, 2007 1:16 PM To: "Undisclosed-Recipient:;"@freelists.org Subject: Dictionary Manager Hi All, I was wondering if there is a way to restore the original dictionary manager settings. I changed something and now want to change it back and can't remember what the original entry was. Thanks for any help.
