Bill, Thanks for confirmation. You also noted: "I noted one other problem with this, before jaws speaks the slide name and contents of the slide the message voice says something to the effect "entry effect none. the slide advances on a mouse click." this happens with every darned slide when in presentation (f5)." You can get rid of this in the JAWS options dialog (Insert+V) and turn off the slide transition messages.

JAWS 9 or JAWS 11, Windows XP Pro and PowerPoint 2007. In the slide show mode (F5) I can advance slides and hear the contents of them if I use the spacebar to advance and backspace to retard. However if I use a remote presenter device, or mouse clicks, or the PageUp and PageDown keys, the slides advance/retard but nothing is spoken except the slide title. Dave
