=======================================================================
   IBM VoiceType Dictation Does Not Shut Down Correctly in OS/2 Warp
=======================================================================

Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures
--------------------------------------------------------------

DESCRIPTION

When IBM VoiceType Dictation Version 1.1 has been running in either 
OS/2 Warp or OS/2 Warp Fullpack and you try to shut it down, you 
receive a "LaunchPad not responding" error, forcing you to shut down 
the LaunchPad. However, you still are unable to shut down VoiceType 
Dictation. You have to shut down and restart the system to end 
VoiceType Dictation.

RESOLUTION

Move the VoiceType Dictation icons originally created on the OS/2 
Desktop back to the Desktop--especially Voice Settings. Voice Settings 
MUST be on the Desktop for VoiceType Dictation to shut down correctly. 
This is a known problem with Version 1.1.
                                          
Note: If Voice Settings IS on the Desktop and the "LaunchPad is not
      responding" error is received, check if the LaunchPad icon was
      placed in a folder. If so, move it back to the Desktop; then shut
      down and restart the system.
