[NABS-L] Quick PC Question

[Shane Popplestone]

Vejas,
I'm glad you got it to work, and I'm glad I told you to type echo, and 
not some long obscure nonsense, and I'll note down it's typing echo in 
my training notes.
I knew it was echo of some sort, and just threw out a 50-50 guess what 
type of echo it was, lol.
Take care.

>>>  Hi Shane,
>>>  Thanks so much for your reply. I tried typing in "echo" from the Start menu, but it then says "Have Narrator announce when I type." I couldn't find anything in that list of information that relates specifically to JAWS. I believe I have Narrator on my computer, but JAWS is what was on and talking. Any idea how I could get to it specifically for JAWS settings? I want to set it permanently as opposed to temporarily.
