Make sure OE is maximized with alt-space, followed by x. But even then, I encounter this problem when I write lengthy messages, especially after I've done a spell-check. ----- Original Message ----- From: Stephen Faill hello list when i finish writing a message in outlook express and go back to the top of the message and perform a say all with jaws v7.0 it will only speak some of the message. i have to finish reading the message by pressing down arrow. can anyone tell me if there is a setting or something that i am missing either in outlook or jaws options? all help is greatly appreciated. stephen
