Hi folks, If you want to get rid of the greater than signs which precede original text under your own E-mail replies, do the following in outlook express: press alt+t then o for options. control+Tab until you reach the send tab. Now tab until you reach the first occurrence of the "plain text settings" item. Note that there are two of these in this dialogue and you need the first which relates to E-mails. Press enter to bring up the settings. Now, tab to "indent the original text with" and uncheck this item. Now, tab to the ok button and press enter. If you are presented with any other dialogues, press ok on them. You should now have no greater than, vertical bar nor colon preceding the original text in your replies. HTH, Phil Medway. ----- Original Message ----- From: "TIDDYogg" <oggy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, March 29, 2006 3:05 PM Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: greater than signs Susan, the signs are still there, it's just that Jaws doesn't speak them.

As long as you don't press control shift D when you open dictionary manager, it will only affect Outlook, and you will still hear greater than signs when you are in other programmes.
