Yall,

I hit okay.  I've done this in previous versions of jaws with absolutely no 
problem.  I'm not a new jaws user.  Been using it since 1999.  There are 
some things in jaws I am not so familiar with, but the configuration manager 
is one that I've used lots and lots.  In jaws 7.10 and 7.0 I have word set 
differently with the punctuation than the other applications, and it works 
in those versions.  That's why this baffles me so much.

I can see the changes when I look in the customize punctuation.  In the word 
JSS file it shows all of the punctuation as all set to be spoken.  But when 
I go into the synthesizer options it will not change from whatever the 
default.jss file is.

It says controlled by synthesizer, but I did try to change it in the default 
to controlled by jaws to see would that change anything, and it won't! 
Soooo frustrating!  I don't know...

Thanks for trying to help yall.
Vicki

Depends on your definition of clearly. You can save configuration
manager till the cows come home, and the changes will not take effect if
you did not hit OK after you made the changes.

Hi.
that's the point, she clearly stated that she saved the changes in
the proper manner, yet JAWS 8 refuses to save her settings.

At 01:00 PM 11/18/2006, you wrote:
