Absolutely! amazing!
Son of a gun, it works.... The application key does the trick (in JAWS
5.0 anyway)
Now, for teasers, have the thesaurus look up "devoid".

Daniel, I have been playing with this damm thesaurus and will not be
beat. Here is where I am, using either Jaws 5.1 or the new jaws 6 and
word or office XP 2003, if you 
want to find synanyms for a word, while on the word, press the
application 
key and down arrow to synanym and press enter and you are put into a
list 
view of synanyms and then enter on the one you want and the selection is
put 
into the document.  no having to switch to the other pane which has in
fact 
been a "PAIN".
I will play with this more later on, but this gives us a little of what
we 
had before in word XP 2002.
