Hello friends, I tried the following, and it broke, in place of formatting the keys, It displayed as they are written in the jsm file. UserBufferAddText ("Welcome to the interactive help system:", "", "", "", 0, 0, 0, 0, false) SayFormattedMessage (OT_User_Buffer, Value ) Value is the name of the message variable which is holding the Percent key format, and I want this code to translate the keys as it does in regular use. Thank you. __________ Visit and contribute to The JAWS Script Repository http://jawsscripts.com View the list's information and change your settings at http://www.freelists.org/list/jawsscripts
