Gosh, I didn't mean that, and I don't have any dog in the fight. I remember
only mentioning that a repair might be the first thing to try when weird
things start going wrong, that's all. I didn't mean anything other than
that. And of course a repair doesn't wipe out your settings or your
dictionary, so I dont' get what you're saying. anyway, as they like to say
now and then, there be a million ways to get things done. Whoops, no, that's
a Talking Heads line. I mean, there's more than one way to do something in
Windows/Jaws/the universe. Anyway, no argument. I understand. But I sure
have never lost my settings by doing a repair *or* an upgrade, so I'm a
little lost.
All best.

Hi, Yardbird.
Query. You characterize a repair as more "radical" than upgrading to the
current version. For me, being able to merge settings is important,
primarily because I have an extensive JAWS dictionary. So in my case, an
upgrade is less radical than a repair, which I believe returns JAWS to
factory settings. A JAWS 8 upgrade allows the user to merge settings.
You've mentioned your own reliance on the JAWS dictionary in the past. Any
thoughts?

Just a thought. I wonder if performing the routine called a Jaws repair
would have rectified the problem, without having to install another version
or anything so radical. That is a very good thing to try routinely when
something really ordinary like this mysteriously stops working right.
