I'm asking this question here and if it is not something that you all experience, I will ask on the Jaws group that I belong to, because I don't know if this problem is inherent to Word or if it is a Jaws thing. I've noticed some keyboard lag when typing in word. this keyboard lag doesn't occur in other programs such as wordpad, notepad, and Outlook Express. Is there anyway that I can decrease the lag. It kind of reminds me of typing on one of those typewriters where you hit the key and the striker is delayed by a few milliseconds.
