[stylist] stylist Digest, Vol 96, Issue 21

its not in the jaws menus. As he said, you have to press a different command 
from within an application such as word and the settings apply to that 
application.
Press insert v to get to the verbosity settings menu. Actually in your 
version of jaws it is easier IMO; jaws 12 and above call this thing settings 
center and it has so many more options in a tree view; its harder to find 
what you need.

Ross,
I have been trying your directions on Spelling and Grammar Detection, and I
seem to break down at the first step.
First, I have version of JAWS 11.1 and I have Microsoft Word, 2003. To get
into JAWS, I go to the Windows start menu,  select J and enter. A box opens
in the tray at the bottom right of the screen. Under options which is the
first one, a V gets me Voices, but there is no verbosity setting that I can
find in any of the submenus, including utilities.
I can swear I have heard that term verbosity before somewhere, but I cannot
find it.
I appreciate your time on this. Under the menu, Language, it says "not
available.
Don't rush. I have gone a long time already without being able to read what
the red and green lines underlie.
Thanks again.
Jackie

Jackie,
To turn on Spelling Error Detection and Grammatical Error Detection on in
Microsoft Word:
1. Press JAWS key and the letter V to open the JAWS Verbosity dialog
box in Microsoft Word.
2. Here you'll find a whole list of options for customizing JAWS with
Microsoft Word. Pressing tab will take you to a field that describes what
each option does, FYI.
3. Press the letter S repeatedly to move to "Spelling Error Detection
off," and then press Spacebar to turn it on.
4. Next hit Down Arrow once to move to "Grammatical error Detection
off," and press Spacebar to turn this on.
5. Press Enter to save your changes.

That's it.
-Ross

Ross,
I followed your instructions and was able to change the voice setting. I was
on reading "most" of the punctuation and changed it to all. I will try it
this way for a time.
Essentially, though, it does not yet read the green lines that are under
words and spaces that are incorrect. I guess I just have to know all of the
grammar mistakes on my own.
I appreciate your instructions.
More later
Jackie
