Sean:

I am not networked. I was running JAWS 9 with Word 2007 but am now running
JAWS 10 public beta. I remember you saying you had this problem and I've
been watching out for it when I revert back to JAWS 9.

If you press Ctrl + Shift + Letter O do you get the Alt Text for the
graphics listed?

One other thing I find that interferes with the accuracy of reading Alt Text
is when I apply picture styles to images but this is mostly in Outlook 2007
with both versions of JAWS.

Cheers, Karen
