Hi Flor, Thank you for the clarification. Yes, I have tried that many times to no avail. I don't know why it won't accept this hot key but as long as it's not a software problem I'm fine with it. Thanks again.

I did backspace everything out of the shortcut field in properties before reassigning alt, control, w key there. I tried Narrator to no avail either. There is no dong when I try the alt, control, w keystroke. I also downloaded the Hot Key Detective and it only shows the hot keys that I have created. The weird thing is that the alt, control, w shortcut key worked on this new computer for a few days and then all of a sudden just stopped working. I am fine with using the control, shift, w keystroke. I just wanted to make sure that there are not any problems with this new computer. Thanks for all of your help.

(Or changing/deleting the ctrl-shift-w shortcut key beforehand?) If your shortcut key isn't accepted, try using narrator during the process. (It just could be that JAWS isn't allowing you to make it. However, it could also be that your Windows won't allow ctrl-alt-w to be used on your new computer. Do you get a dong when you try to make your shortcut ctrl-alt-w? If you do, then you may just have to accept ctrl-shift-w.) Another option might be to install Hot Key Detective, which is a program that detects all the keyboard shortcuts on your computer. It is available on the jaws-users programs page. ----- Original Message ----- >From: "Mike & Barbara Brunner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Monday, March 24, 2008 2:17 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Word shortcut key not working Hi Flor, No Flor, I didn't install Word Web but, I did have it installed on my old computer and uninstalled it. I don't have it installed on this new computer although I did reinstall the same Operating System and Office software. It does seem like this shortcut problem started after the original installation of Word Web the first time . I thought by uninstalling Word Web that would take care of the problem but apparently not and if that is the problem, how could I correct it. Thanks much.

It will do this unless you change it during installation.
