The only answer I can give is that default.jbs is not a dictionary file. Not sure what it is. a .jss is an editable script file, and a jsb is the binary script file created after compiling. a .jcf is a configuration file. A .jkm is a keyboard file. A .jsd is likely the document file associated with script files.

I believe they're found under user settings. I have quite a bit of practice, since Freedom Scientific crippled the dictionary a couple of years back. Any word with an asterisk is now carved in stone, unless you use a text editor to change it. I think 12 has remedied the situation somewhat, but don't know if its fixed entirely.

Somehow, everything got deleted and I have absolutely no backup because I don't know how to back up the dictionary manager. *headdesk* Now I have to re-enter every. single. entry. ----- Original Message ----- From: Lisle, Ted (CHFS DMS) To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, October 22, 2010 1:54 PM Subject: RE: Turning On Dictionary Manager Every app has that check box; is the problem program-specific, or global?

Strange.

I know how to get to it, but for some reason, the changes I made aren't showing up. I think I literally turned it off. Not closed it. ----- Original Message ----- From: Stan Holdeman To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, October 22, 2010 1:09 PM Subject: Re: Turning On Dictionary Manager jaws key plus D should do it for the application you are in. Then shift control D should get you to the default dictionary manager.
