It's okay Tom, problems solved.I got a system restore back 2 days, before this disaster; so now I have Wineyes 7.5.1 again. I wasted time trying to install 7.5.1 on top of 7.5.2 and got a message that some hook or the other could not be set, so lost speech at that point, but my wife did the restore.

Make sure Show advanced options is on under the help menu. Open the keyboard node and cursor down once to the voice node. Then tab once for the speak options. I've never had any problem with the backspace key. I just tried Ctrl-Shift-R and got the same result as you. I never noticed because I've never used it in a composition window before.

Next I'm going to get off the thunderbird.000 set file, because it might be a new one they developed for 7.5.2; and not the one I had developed myself in 7.5.1. I do notice small improvements in thunderbird, the backspace is more reliable, but the old read to end shortcut control+shift+R now only reads the single sentence I'm on, and not to the end, as before.. I wish I could type that blithring idiot noise the Three Stooges used, you know, where you make a noise with your mouth as youflip across your lips with a finger. that's how I feel typing in this madness! smile.

Same double repeating with and without apps running. It's not just speaking the character I just typed, or the word, but the sentence I'm typing, cumulatively, from the first word to the cursor position, instantly the very nanosecond I pause typing. Where is the setting to turn off speaking of typed words in the W E control panel, do you know? I used to know, but can't find it in this wonderful tree view control panel. Thanks, Indigo L.

It is reading every line twice immediately after I type even a single character, never did that before. I feel like I'm in some huge cave, with an echo repeating every thing I say! When I pressed the enter key to begin the upgrade, I felt just like I do at the doctors, beginning some procedure that could either take the disease away or take my life, and all I can do is submit. smile. Now I gotta go into the tree structure of the once easy Winize control panel and try to find a setting that will shut down this maddening double echo One thing about hearing everything twice, I sure have no doubt about what I've written. smile. I don't know whether to laugh or cry! Indigo L
