HELLO JOHN
THANK YOU FOR THIS
I DID THAT AND OK APART FROM ONE THING
I NOW HAVE EVERYTHING BEING TYPED AND SPOKEN IN UPPER CASE
TO HAVE LOWER CASE I HAVE TO PRESS SHIFT KEY
THIS IS REVERSED TO HOW IT SHOULD BE SO HOW WOULD I SET IT BACK TO ORIGINAL 
MODE.
IN OTHER WORDS SO THAT UPPER CASE IS ONLY SPOKEN  WHEN I PRESS CAPSLOCK OR USE 
THE SHIFT KEY
THANK YOU
Yvonne

  Yvonne, you can choose Numpad Insert, Caps Lock or Scroll Lock to be the JAWS 
key for the desktop layout. For JAWS V12, you configure this by going to the 
settings centre with JAWS+6. Then select the default application. Then go to 
the keyboard node in the tree and open it. Arrow down to, JAWS key for desktop 
layout. Press space until the required key is spoken. Then tab to OK and press 
Enter.

  If you have JAWS 11 or earlier, go to Configuration Manager with JAWS+6, then 
select the default application with Ctrl+Shift+d. I think you then go to the 
Settings menu with Alt+S, arrow down to Keyboard and hit Enter. You should then 
see a dialog which includes a set of radio buttons called, JAWS key for desktop 
layout. Choose the required radio button and hit OK. Finally, exit 
Configuration Manager with Alt+F4 and choose Yes to save your changes.

  Hope this helps.

  John

  hi 
  i would like to change the jaws key to something else as i use the numeric 
keypad frequently.
  i keep forgetting to change from num loc on and off.
  can someone tell me how to change the key?
  and of course can it be reversed back to the zero on the numeric keypad if i 
feel this was not such a good idea to change it.
  1 last question is there any keys i can't use?
  i would like to use the caps lock key as this is rarely used for anything
  thank you

  Yvonne

    Hi everybody, re the recent post about inability to access the ice grips 
page on the blacktoe website. I assume the person is using IE8. If you add the 
site to compatibility view in the tools menu it works fine.
                        John.
