Hi Barbara,
I got it working with the speech and sounds manager.
I also discovered that with jaws nine you can't do this.

Here is something for you to play around with.  I can't help you
specifically, but I think what you want might be done within this.

Bring up the JAWS Manager by pressing insert F2.
Arrow down to the Configuration Manager and press enter.
type ALT+S to bring up the Settings menu.
Type M or arrow down to Speech And Sounds Manager and press enter.
Tab twice to edit current scheme and press enter.
press shift+tab to get to the tab pages associated with this option.
Press the right arrow once to Control Type Tab.
Tab and you will be on a list of control elements.  I have a list of 84
items.
Each one can be adjusted to speak in a different voice, not speak or play a
sound.
Tab once beside each one and there will be a radio button for the 4 options.
Play a sound is the third choice.
When you choose one, such as play a sound, then tab for further options to
pick the sound.
You can also have a control type say something other than the default words.
Such as change radio button to just say radio.

Hope this makes sense and helps.

Always,
Barbara Anne

Thanks so much.
I know absolutely nothing about scripting, so guss I'll have to wait on
that.

Good afternoon Stacey,

I think the simple answer is yes, you can make this happen.  But, I
doubt
that there is a simple way to do it.  I would guess, without having
investigated too much, that it would require some scripting.

My current personal project is to find out if I can make the label
that
jaws speaks for a checkbox read after the word "Checkbox", instead of
before.

Sorry that I can't be more help at the moment,
Everett

Hi, is there any way to asign a sound so that if you come upon a link
you
here a sound as well as or instead of the word link?

Thanks,
