Gary,
 
Same build of jaws.
 
I am using Word 2003, I forget if you and Cher are using this or
something earlier?
 
Could it be related to your punctuation setting?  Maybe try setting
punctuation to all?

        Chip,
         
        Which build of JAWS 9.0 are you using?  I have JAWS 9.0.2169.  I
turned everything having to do with detection on in Verbosity, and the
PC cursor still won't announce the space and paragraph markers. I also
changed to Screen Layout from Simple Layout.
         
        I never noticed that this announcement was missing in JAWS 9.0
because I never turn these markers on.  As I mentioned in a previous
message, I can't get them spoken in JAWS 10 with the PC cursor either.

                I can get my jaws 9 to read my word 2003 paragraph marks
using pc cursor.  Could it be because my document presentation is set to
screen layout perhaps?  I didn't play around with all the verbosity
options, could it be related to the page and section break option, which
I also have on?

                        Hi Cher,
                         
                        Control+Shift+8 does show the markers, and I can
read them with the JAWS cursor in both JAWS 9 and JAWS 10 in Word 2003.
However, I can't hear them spoken when using the PC cursor in either
version.  I didn't find anything in the Verbosity menu that would change
this behavior.  I still have JAWS 8 on my system, and they are spoken
with the PC cursor using this JAWS version.

                                Hey folks- I can't get the toggle key to
work anymore or else I can't get JAWS to read the paragraph marks etc.
Is control-shift-8 (on the number row) the toggle to switch on/off the
space marks and paragraph marks?  The tool bar shows that the 'Show All'
button is pressed when I do this, but nothing changes on the screen.
What am I doing wrong?  Using Word XP/2002 and latest Jaws9.  Thanks.  
                                 
                                Thanks for any ideas.
                                 
                                Cher
