Hi John and others,
I too have the problem of Jaws not reading the misspelled word that has been
found while in spell check mode. What I do is this.
When it stops on a misspelled word, but doesn't say what it is, I do a shift
tab, then I hit insert up arrow to read the current line. Now it tells me
the misspelled word.
Then I hit tab and it drops me into the list of choices and jaws reads them.
For some reason, Jaws will lose focus on the message while in spell checking
mode. But give the steps I mentioned a try and see if they work. Jack
