Hello Chuck and thanks for the tips...

Now that I've gotten past my QuicKeys problem, I am fooling around with v2.0 dictation in other programs such as text edit and Apple Mail and even FileMaker. I have always been one who likes to move the mouse around and even hand type right in the middle of dictation. I'm happy to report that in these other applications I am able to put the cursor anywhere I want in the middle of the previously dictated text and start dictating, and for the most part things are working as expected, which for me is very good news.

one of the tech people said to say the phrase " cache  document"  after moving the mouse around–but so far I have not needed to do that much.

 Happy customer–Day three
