Kane, I've noticed this on occasion also, even with my copy of Outlook 
Express 6. I've found that sometimes saving a document, and or even doing 
screen refresh insert f1 can fix this.
can't fully guarantee this though but let us know how it goes.

Subject: Apostrophe Sometimes Not Recognized



Hi, folks.  I have a fairly simple question about something that falls into 
the annoyance category.



I've noticed, when running Microsoft Word 10 with JFW 6.20, that JFW doesn't 
always recognize an apostrophe for what it is.  So it will mispronounce 
words with contractions in them.  (I've sounds like "I V E" instead of 
"Ive.")  Also, placing my cursor directly over an apostrophe or a quotation 
mark will result in JFW being silent instead of identifying that character 
as an apostrophe or a quote-as if the program is not seeing it.



Has anyone else experienced this?  I don't think I've made any changes to a 
JAWS dictionary entry that would have caused this to happen, and JFW doesn't 
seem to miss other punctuation marks such as comma or period.



Just wondering,



-Kane
