Hi David. I tried your suggestion of putting the ` key in with replacement text of a space character in the dictionary manager.
You are right that when the ` key is encountered within some kind of text nothing is spoken, but, when you press the ` key jaws says "space". Therefore, this solution won't work for Carlos.

In the replacement word field simply hit the space bar one time and it won't say anything.

I thought of that, but the dictionary manager insists that you enter replacement text. Everything I tried spoke something.

You could try using the dictionary manager in effect telling jaws to not say anything when that particular key is pressed.

Listers, In the settings of talking desktop clock, there is a keystroke setup for anounceing the time. So I chose the grawv key sence we really don't use that key any way. Maybe that was not such a good idea? But it does work, the clock is saying the time, I just don't like hearing grawv before I hear the time spoken. Now I'm sure that we all know that the grawv key is just above the tab key I remember some time ago, or should I really say, some years ago. I went in to key labals and muted simbles, but that stopped all simbles from being spoken. I just now pressed the grawv key and talking desktop clock did tell me the time, however, Jaws said grawv first. Jaws speaking at that moment can make it kind of hard to hear the clock speaking, sence I'm using one of the clock's voices, Robby the robot. Thanks to all.
