Hi Nolan: The problem that you are having is due to the fact that the saving process is continually updated highlighted text. Jaws, by default, automatically speaks highlighted text.
If you press Insert-S, (screen echo options), you can cycle through those screen echoing options which are: all, highlighted which is the default, or none. Just set the option to none while the program is in the saving process; afterwhich, you would want to set the window speaking option back to highlighted. Hope this helps. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nolan Crabb" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'PC audio discussion list.
