I think it might be Option Escape or whatever other combination you wish to set up on keyboard but sorry if I am wrong, I may be referring to speak text under mouse. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jimmy Podsim" <jp.kd5...@att.net>

Well, I read messages a little different from most. I press enter on the messages thread. This on pens the message in another window. Then I do VO e for edit and arrow down to speech and hit enter on start speaking. This will read you the message without anything being spoken besides the text. I was told that there’s a hot key to read like this, but I don’t know it.

God bless our troops and God bless America again.

Sorry for all questions, it is just I am trying to wean myself off Windows and using Mac more rather than concentrating on training lessons. It is only with more use that the issues are arising.

Now in Mail, I thought if I want to reply to a message and to use dictation, I could press the Fn key twice and once again to stop the dictation. I am doing this but nothing happens. I can hear a sort of beep when the dictation supposedly starts but then there is nothing when I stop the dictation. I thought I had set this up in text edit with someone but maybe it has to be set up in Mail also.

Secondly when I am reading a mail from someone, vo keeps saying words are misspelt and I guess they are because of the way people write in slang etc. Now on my Windows PC I don't have this happening. Do I have to just put up with listening to this intrusion of misspelt as messages are being read back to me?
