Check carefully after assigning the hotkey to make sure it's really there 
before saving the shortcut. Sometimes it is replaced with the Tab character 
when you Tab away from the field.

Also make sure you don't have another version of JAWS on the desktop with the 
same hot key assigned.

  Hi All,

  We created a hot key for Jaws 10.x through the properties shortcut page on a 
friends computer.  When she unloads Jaws with the Insert + F4 key stroke, then 
tries to restart with control, alt, + J keystroke nothing happens.  She then 
has to reboot the computer to get Jaws running again.  What are we doing wrong. 
 She is running XP Pro & Jaws 10.x.  All advice will be greatly appreciated.  
Thanks much.  Take care.

  Mike
