For whatever reason JAWS seemes to need a complete re-boot of the computer from time to time. This was true with XP and seems to be the same with W7. The spell check function in Word 2007, W7 64 bit seems to go out into left field on a fairly regular basis but after a re-boot it works better. This particular function worked better in XP with JAWS 11. Geez, too many external factors to have a hope in Hades of pinpointing the problem. Isn't life exciting?

I got no results using the example Josh provided. I am using XP Home, no kidding, and if I reboot all may be fine. Who knows?

Let's all try to include this info when seeking info on what works and what does not.
