Billy - That's exactly why they introduced that alternative. You can do the same thing for words, abbreviations, acronyms, etc., in the Dictionary Manager. I have a friend who has a rather unusual voice and who, when excited, sounds sort of like a seal. I set up a dictionary entry for his name so that every time JAWS encountered it, a .wav file of a baby seal pup barking would play.

Speaking of the configuration manager, I don't know if this has been mentioned before, but yesterday, I went into the configuration manager, and made the "On mouse over" notice change to a short, quick, but noticeable dead bolt locking sound. It is not nearly as annoying as the words being spoken, and yet, I am aware that it is an "on mouse over" link, so I know what I am dealing with, instead of just thinking that it is a dead link. That way, I got the benefit of being notified of the on mouse over link, without as much distraction as actual words being thrown into an already large amount of spoken info. I hope this helps!
