Christine,
Earlier you asked about having a sound when you open windows in general, and
the sounds and audio properties (Win XP) is the correct place to do this.
Now you have added this condition that you want a sound to play when a
particular title shows up on the screen when focused.
I think you need to do the following:
1. First make sure that your verbosity is set to announce application titles
when they open. This is configuration manager in the default configuration,
verbosity settings, and adjusting that particular level of verbosity.
2. Then you should open the dictionary manager, for the default dictionary, and
in the "add" field enter the exact title of your application window. Then in
the "replacement word" field enter whatever you want. Then tab to the sounds
button and assign a sound. Save and save and save.
I've never done this myself, but it seems that it should work.
Good luck.
Dave

hi,
I'm trying to assign a sound to the title of a window so I can easily
tell which window I'm on when alt tabbing. This is important because in one
application the f2 key retreaves information but on my phone application it
hangs up the phone.
I accomplished this with the jaws dictionary manager, but I don't
remember how I was able to properly assign it.
thanks,

Hi Christine;
To assign a sound to a job / task you have to go into the control panel /
sounds & audio devices / sounds page. Take care.

hi,
At work I had sounds set so that when I switch from one application
to another jaws would play a sound. My system totaly reset itself and I don't
remember how I did this. I am using jfw 7.0 (only at work) I've tried
selecting the title and adding it to the dictionary. This doesn't seem to
work. Can anyone refresh my memory?
