Hi thanks this has solved it for me. I don't think I will need to report it as a Jaws 10 problem now although having said that, when I tried one of the alternative voices which I quite liked, I did seem to have some trouble with selected text but I don't see how altering a voice would do that.
I love not having to enter to get into forms mode though. Brilliant and it seems to make things faster. Mandy.
