Oh wow! I am not the only one having this problem! I am taking it this is not my computer, but a jaws 8 issue. I guess all we can do now is let FS know this. Thanks for letting us know! The problem you described is the exact one I am having.

Some settings would let me change them and some would not- no matter what I did. I have had the most difficulty getting JAWS 8 to allow me to change punctuation verbosity. Cher >>> "Vicki Andrada" <vickarrots@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> 11/18/06 1:54 PM >>> Hi all! I am having this problem with jaws 8 configuration manager. It will not allow me to save any changes. Like when I try to make it say all punctuation in MS word, I save the settings, and it still won't save the changes! I go back and check it and the settings are exactly the same. I really need this to work, because I take an online class, and this class requires me to be able to change these settings. I even went into the options and went to the new manager that lets you uncheck and check settings, and I unchecked for MS word, and redid it, and no luck! This problem is also occurring in MSN messenger. I like all punctuation spoken in messenger too, however, it's much more important in word. I do not understand the deal, because I have never ever had this problem before in previous versions of jaws. Sure I could go back to jaws 7.10 where I am able to change these settings, but I like this version, and don't want to have to. Besides there has to be a solution to this problem. Other than this problem of not being able to change configuration settings, I love jaws 8 so far! Any help anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated. Oh and I am new to this list.
