Derek, I'm no expert, but are you looking at the dictionary file on the thumb drive, or on the hard drive? One of these should be updating.

The Default Dictionary file, originally has 138 items in the tree view. JAWS behaves as expected until I add a dictionary rule. When I go back to the Default Dictionary File, the original 138 entries are no longer there. The tree view only shows the dictionary rule I added. The tree view should now show 129 entries, the original 128 plus the one I added. When I delete my dictionary entry and go back to the Default Dictionary File, the tree view shows nothing. Also, when I add a dictionary rule, JAWS doesn't read apostrophes. I have to re-install JAWS on my thumb drive to get everything back to normal.Has anyone experienced these problems and been able to solve or find a way to work around them? For your information, I am working on a computer using Windows XP Professional. Thanks.
