Hi mike
No worry about contradicting
I never even saw it that way
When I press shift 3 jaws does indeed say pound  and not number
If your keyboard settings are ok then I have no idea why this should be
doing this for you
Do you subscribe to jaws UK list?
They may be able to help

Hi Yvonne;

When you type, shift + 3, does Jaws say pound or number?  The reason I ask 
is because, I switched my keyboard settings to UK English in, Regional and 
Language Options, in the control panel.  After doing so, when I pressed 
shift + 3, Jaws still said, number.  Also, I apologize if I appeared to be 
contradicting you about this pound / pounds keystroke thing.  I wasn't 
contradicting you, I was merely giving other options.  Especially when 
British currency never crossed my mind, as I stated earlier in this thread. 
Take care.
Mike

  It depends on the keyboard you have.  If I press the shift and the number 
3
  on the keyboard I get the number sign.
