Bulletin Type: TSN Number: 17842

Product Name: JAWS for Windows
Version: 5.0
Category: Outlook Express
Short Description:
When checking spelling in Outlook Express 5 & 6, JAWS does not speak
all the functions.
Problem:
When you check your spelling in Outlook Express 5 & 6, JAWS usually
reads the first misspelled word correctly. However, JAWS does not read
subsequent misspelled words or suggestions. Also, JAWS does not speak ALT+G,
ALT+A, ALT+I, ALT+L, ALT+C, and ENTER. This is more apparent in computers
with processors that run at a speed of 500 MHz or less.
Solution:
Outlook Express scripts are available to fix this problem. To get
these scripts, download the file 17842spell.zip from the following URL:
ftp://ftp.freedomscientific.com/users/hj/private/WebFiles/17842spell.zip
Perform the following to use these new scripts with JAWS:
1. Download and save 17842spell.zip to a folder on your computer that
is easy for you to access. You will need a utility like WinZip to extract
the files from the .zip file.
2. Extract the contents of the file. The files contained in the
archive are named Outlook Express 5-6.jkm,
Outlook Express 5-6.jss, and Outlook Express 5-6.jsb.
3. Select these three files and press CTRL+C to copy them to the
Clipboard.
4. Open Windows Explorer and go to the folder C:\JAWS50\Settings\ENU.
5. Press CTRL+V to paste the new files into the ENU folder. When
Windows asks if you want to replace the existing files, choose Yes.
6. Quit and then restart JAWS.
