Hi Graham, These steps are for Jaws versions prior to Jaws 16 but, give them a try. I don't have J16 installed so....
If you want nothing said instead of blank in all applications try the following: 1. Open the Settings Center, press, control, shift, + D, to open Settings Center default all applications. 2. Arrow down to, punctuation closed..., right arrow to open, down arrow to, customize punctuation...., & press the spacebar to open. Make sure you press the spacebar to open & not enter. Pressing enter will close the Settings Center. 3. Tab to the Advanced button & press spacebar to open. The first item in the list will be, blank, so tab 1 time to, edit description.... button, & press the spacebar to open. The word, blank, will be in this edit field. Delete the word, blank, put a space with the spacebar, & press enter. 4. Tab to okay, press the spacebar, tab to okay, press the spacebar, tab to apply, press the spacebar, tab to okay, press the spacebar to save your changes & close the Settings Center. If you don't want this in all applications, open the desired applications individually & use the above steps in each application. HTH Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool.

Please can someone remind me how to do this. I am sure I am doing it right but cannot achieve it. I have an option to apply changes in jaws 15 but no apply option in jaws 16. I am looking at all this under advanced options in customise punctuation. regards graham For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
