Tom, On my system, "\011 = vertical tab" is the first item under the list of synthesizers. Let me backtrack. Brian takes us to the list of synthesizers, which you obviously located. It happens that the synthesizer I use, Dectalk Express, isn't listed. But as I arrowed down through the ones that are shown, I landed on "\011 = vertical tab" right below the last synthesizer.

Press a backslash key until you find a backslash followed by 011. JAWS should tell you that this equals Vertical Tab. I couldn't seem to do this step with English and the Eloquence synthesizer open. In other words, I couldn't access the specified backslash character. When I hit backslash, nothing happened, and arrowing down through the list of character options didn't reveal this character.

Press JAWS key with D to bring up the dictionary manager. 2. Use CTRL with Shift and D to load the default dictionary manager. 3. Tab to the tree view and press E for English. 4. Expand the English option by using right arrow key. 5. Use down arrow key and find the appropriate synthesizer. You can also press E for Eloquence, V for ?Vocalizer, V until you find Vocalizer Expressive, etc. 6. Use right arrow to open the appropriate synthesizer item. 7. Press a backslash key until you find a backslash followed by 011. JAWS should tell you that this equals Vertical Tab. 8. Tab to the Change button and press spacebar. 9. In the Actual Word field should be the \011. Tab to the Replacement Word field and press spacebar one time. 10. Tab to OK and use spacebar. 11. Use CTRL with S to save changes. 12. Close the window using Alt with F4. 13. You might or might not need to restart JAWS. The above worked for me using a Vocalizer Expressive profile. Take care.

As some of you may recall, I'm working to get Office 365 up and running on a fairly new Windows 7 laptop. I am using the latest build of Jaws 17. I have noticed that in many e-mails, and especially in Microsoft Word documents, Jaws keeps saying "vertical tab", as I navigate whatever it is I'm reading. I don't recall encountering this behavior in the previous versions of Outlook and Word that I have used. How can I get Jaws to stop reading the vertical tabs, whatever they are? As I'm sure yu can imagine, this vertical tab designation is very distracting.
