Hello John,
You do apparently need to run the program one time that jaws announces when
you enter WordPerfect.  This will make the changes to the registry.  It
announces the keystrokes.  I think  it is shift control insert I, but I
could be wrong about this.  Also it is likely that each time you enter
WordPerfect you will find Jaws simply announces button as you try to use
your cursor keys.  This is because Jaws is trapped in a tool bar.  To
correct this, you need to press alt to get the WordPerfect menu, then go to
view and select turn off tool bars.  Unfortunately this turns off all tool
bars, so sighted users of your computer are likely to complain.  Good luck.
Dennis
