Hi Brioan, Well, I have also found the announcement of new lines when navigating with up or down arrow in Word more than annoying. In my case, I had all the relevant checkboxes for line announcement unchecked, yet Jaws still said new line. Hey, I know that, I pressed down arrow. Smile. The only solution I found was to go into Speech and Sounds manager, and under the miscellaneous tab, there was a choice to indicate new lines with a sound. I chose the quietest little sound I could find and now I don't even notice it. For me, this problem started with Jaws 9 and as far as I know is still there. starteemke Jean

While in Microsoft Word, use insert+V to bring up the JAWS verbosity dialog, press the letter "n" to move to the "new lines and paragraphs indication" choice and if it is not set to "off" then use spacebar until you get that setting. Also, you might check in the configuration manager. Use JAWS key 6 to open Word's configuration manager. Use Alt+S to bring up the settings menu. use down arrow to the "text processing" choice and press enter key. Use shift-tab past the OK button and there should be three or four checkboxes shown that control the indication of new lines. If any are checked then remove the checkmarks from all relevant checkboxes by using spacebar. Use the tab key to move to the OK button and press enter key. Use CTRL+S to save changes and close the configuration manager. Take care.
