Well, when Jim sent a message to the list my JFW crashed and I don't know which 
one
it was because I had to delete it and could not read it. I'm still using version
5.10.

Hey I just tried this scenario using Magic, which uses Eloquence speech=20
engine just like JAWS does, and NOT ONLY did it crash Eloquence, it also =

froze my screen! Here is what I did.

I opened Word and pulled up a blank screen. I typed in a simple sentence =

such as "now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their=20
country." And then I continued typing "I want to type the word" (and =
then I=20
put in the word c a e s u r e without all the spaces, and after the word =

finished the sence with the phrase "to see what happens."

When I read it back using document reader, so that I could see on screen =

which word the system was reading, Eloquence crashed all right, but it=20
crashed ahead of the word "c a e s u r e ". In fact, it crashed on the =
word=20
"the" as in "the word" before the oddly spelled word.

this leads me to suspect the problem is somehow related to this word =
getting

into the buffer and therein lies a clue to the cure.

I will send this info on to FS.

I have not tried this directly with JAWS but I can now corroborate that =
this

problem also exists in Magic.
