Hi Mireille, I found out something interesting about using Thesaurus in Office 2003. When I put the Jaws cursor on the synonym and hit the right mouse key, I get the insert, copy and lookup screen.
Also, if the PC cursor is at the beginning of the word in the document for which I am looking for the synonym, the insert put the result in the document in front of the word , thus not replacing it. However, if the PC cursor is in the word itself, the insert will replace the word in the document. I guess that this is normal? Thanks for your help.
