Hi all, unloading and reloading Jaws solved my issue. But, this brings up another point. I find that when Jaws crashes and restarts itself, that version of Jaws doesn't work properly. Seems to be less responsive, for one thing. I am suspecting that perhaps this is what was causing my problems with spell check. Anyone else noticing this difference?

Verbosity determines the amount of information spoken by JAWS. Each verbosity level is preset to give a different amount of detail. Each level can be further customized to give only the information you want to hear. The default selection is Beginner, which gives the most detailed information. -----Original Message----- From: Jonathan Cohn Sent: Tuesday, February 2, 2016 9:23 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Problems with spell check in MS Word Hello, I have not heard of this happening before. Have you made any significant changes to the JAWS settings for Word? If not, it might be worthwhile removing the word.jcf file from your "My settings" area of JAWS and seeing if that fixes things.

I am spell checking a document, and when I find a spelling error, I hear: Spelling and Grammar English (US) then the misspelled word then spelling and Grammar English (US) then blank where the correctly spelled word would be spoken How can I set spell check to be less verbose and how can I restore the normal reading of the correctly spelled word? As you can assume, it is virtually impossible to spell check a document in this way, so if someone can help me I would really appreciate it.
