Hi Troy,
For future reference, why don't you make a backup of your Jaws settings,
so when you encounter a problem like this, you can just restore Jaws to it's
previous state.
This would eliminate the need to uninstall Jaws to correct a small problem.

I don't think so but I could have.  I thought that maybe you weren't
supposed to put spaces in the replacement word so I went back and changed it
where I put the two words together and just capitalized the m in Mike which
accomplished the same thing, but the problem still existed so I ended up
uninstalling that version of Jaws.

Hello,

Didyou perhaps say "Y" to a question an somehow you added the letter y as a
substitution for a space in the dictionary manager? Just a thought.
