NVDA does not often read dialog prompts or the highlighted items, e.g., closing MS Word document asking whether file si to be saved... Similarly, in Windows' user account prompt, NVDA fails to read it.

I am concerned that we're not reading the dialog text for the MS Word confirmation dialog. Could you please state exactly what version of MS Word, and possibly when this boken in NVDA, if ever?

Hmm, I've seen this. I don't think its that its not being read, but that its intermittent due to system lag or something like that. It would be interesting to know if the reporter was using 7 with lots of the pretty bits enabled and other things running when this occurs. Certianly in XP these conditions seem to make it occur far more often. Also of course is it possible that something else is coming along and cancelling the read before it starts? I wonder which synth is in use. Its far worse for me with Sapi 5 which suggests its due to processor loading or general congestion in the machine.
