There are a lot of dialogs that don't say anything. You can
create a function in the profile to search for the dialog and
announce it if it appears. You need to create a frame around
the area the box appears, make it a silent frame and put the name
of your search function as the New Text Function on the
action tab in the frame definition. The search function can
look like this:
Script FindNastyDialog ()
SaveCursor ()
JawsCursor ()
FindString (GetCurrentWindow (), "Error 234 ", S_TOP, S_UNRESTRICTED)
SayField ()
RestoreCursor ()
EndScript
