Margaret, DECTalk Access 32 and Open Book Version 8.0 are not compatible at 
all.  In fact, I had to remove my Access 32 to get Open Book 8 to work at 
all.  You may have the same problem with Jaws 9.  There is a file which has 
a protocol that both programs try to handle and the result is that neither 
of them will function.  It's too bad.  I still used DecTalk for some 
applications.
