  Hi all, this is MMM with the Say All problems in 8. Just letting everyone 
know the results of this challenge. First of all I posted several requests 
on the list and got a few good ideas for fixes; such as running repair and 
so on but finally broke down and spent the $20 bucks on FS phone tech call 
at .4 cents a minute. 15 of those minutes were in call waiting but this is 
what I found.



  First of all there are certainly different levels of techs! Some are not 
so helpful and some just cannot handle anyone's frustration on trying to get 
something to work right, especially after they paid for it.



  Ok, got Dennis, he was very good and we tried just about everything and 
got the Say All keys working and in case anyone might have this problem we 
had to change the reading  settings in the configuration menu from read 
sentence to read line with no pauses. Now if I go into 8 with Word and 
change that setting in the  Jaws verbosity menu to do anything else, guess 
what, say all wont' work!



  We also had to cleanse all my Word defaults for Jaws and start over. When 
I did a merge that brought over some changes that altered my new keys 
settings. But now, guess what.

  We discovered that Jaws has a bug that won't let the line be spoken when 
you hit a down page and the cursor lands on a line with text. This would 
work and then it wouldn't , The tech reported this to the developers and 
they will look at it in their upgrade.

  He was able to duplicate the very same problem on his com there.

  I learned all kinds of little things and am now able to at least make a 
few changes on my own.

  I also got the new upgrade in the mail and loaded in the sappi voices and 
wow, now that is a nice feature.



  I plan to order the TextAloud  and does anyone know if those two voices 
will also be able to be used by Jaws?



  Thanks everyone, take care

  MMM
