Until yesterday, I never had this happen. I opened a Word document that a friend sent to me, and I would estimate that about half of the text was read twice. I'm using JAWS 5.1 on this computer with Word 2000 Pro, so I'm wondering if it's strictly a JAWS 6.2 or Word XP issue. I have JAWS 6.0 and Word XP Pro on my laptop, and I've never had this problem.
