Chris,

You're sure you're starting from the top of the text of interest?

It worked for me first time in this message.

However, I've experienced some intermittence with the summary, especially in 
MS-Word. Using the same JAWS version as you.

Subject: JAWS 11 and Skim Reading


Hello all,
Anyone having problems with the skim reading feature in JAWS 11.0.756?
Here's how I can duplicate the problem:
1. Open a document, such as an e-mail message.
2. Press JAWS key+shift+ctrl+down arrow to open the Skim Reading dialogue
box.
3. Select the desired settings, and press enter to click the create summary
button.
4. Absolutely nothing happens.
This is with JAWS 11.0.756. If I use JAWS 10, Skim Reading works as
expected.
Just thought I'd ask out here before maybe reporting it to my dealer in the
UK.
