Hello All,
I have written a script for a thesaurus application which starts out with PC 
cursor in the edit field where I type the word to look up, then with a script, 
Jaws cursor moves to the appropriate area and reads the synonyms found.  
However, the application settings for punctuation, rate, person etc. only work 
correctly when reading with PC Cursor. When the Jaws cursor reads the synonyms, 
it uses global settings.  In the script, I have tried saving and restoring both 
cursors, however, this does not help.  
I tried including  the built-in function in the script to Set Voice parameters, 
however, it requires six parameters, and I cannot find the values for these. 
For example, it seems to be asking for a parameter starting with VTX_ in 
hjconst.jsh, but I have gone through this file, as well as hjglobal.jsh and am 
at a loss. I found similar constants such as "v_punctuation", but I am not able 
to use them.
Is there somehow I can find the list of values to set punctuation, for the 
various levels such as none, some, most, or all punctuation spoken? 
Certainly, I can change the verbosity settings with insert plus v while I am in 
the application, however, I am more curious as to why I cannot resolve the 
problem permanently within the script itself.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Donna
