Yes, it is exactly in MS-Word that I need the attributes read, but as I said in my previous E-mail, JAWS uses different voices for different attributes, and what I would prefer instead is if JAWS would announce "bold" etc. Any idea how to make JAWS behave that way?

Hit Jaws key +f2 and scroll down till you hear Configuration manager. Hit enter. 2. From the configuration manager once you are in the application-specific dot jcf file, hit alt+u for the user options menu. 3. Arrow down to Speech and sounds Manager and select it. 4. Hit home to take you to the top of the list. The third, fourth and fifth options on the list are where you want to be. You can have Jaws read attributes only, attributes and fonts, or attributes fonts and colors. You can hit the tab key on each one and you'll go into a read-only field where you can hear or read a description oof how Jaws handles it. 5. Hit the one you want and close the configuration manager making sure to save your changes. You should be in business now.
