Hi Jim Maybe I missed something or I'm off base or something, but have you used the VO v command to turn on VoiceOver's announcing attributes. When I check this, I turn two things on. I first turn on where it says When Status Changes--right now mine is set to do nothing, but if I use the up and down arrows I can get play tone or speak. I usually use speak. The other thing I change when I want to check format is Text Attributes; it has the same choices. Then I press ESCAPE to get out. I set both of these options to check for format.
