Re: [Blind-Computing] JAWS10 latest update help
Autosizer has not been updated in a few years, so version 1.71 will probably remain the most current version for quite some time. Normally, when you get an auto update, it's a good idea to install it to keep your program up to date. Unfortunately,there is really no way to know in advance what impact a particular update will have on JAWS. If people encounter problems with a particular update, you can be sure you will hear about it on this list.

Re: [Blind-Computing] JAWS10 latest update help
Hi Rogelio, Do you have the box checked for show Icon in the system tray? This is in Options. When you are finished making your selections and after pressing space bar on okay press space bar on the hide choice. Pressing space bar on the hide choice will keep Autosizer in the system tray and pressing space bar on the exit choice will take Autosizer out of the system tray. If Autosizer isn't in the system tray find Autosizer in your programs list and start the program there and that should get it back into the system tray if the appropriate boxes are checked. I hope this helps. Take care.

[Blind-Computing] Creating Pages in MS Word 2007
Hi I am using MS Office 2007 for home and students. The trouble I am having is with a document I use as a template for my class papers. Normally, as one writes a paper in the template in MS Word inserts the page breaks automatically and as a person reads down the screen with JAWS 10 the text automatically scrolls so JAWS can read it. As of late MS word has taken to putting the body of the paper on one page even though it has several pages worth of text. When JAWS and sighted people read the document only part of the first page of the body of the document actually shows. The document has a title page that shows properly then the body of the document and finally a reference page. My question is, how do I get this body of the paper to automatically break in to individual pages? Thanks for your help.

[Blind-Computing] Possible Windows Live Messenger bot
Hello to Lali on this list and whoever else who is on my contacts. I've been getting a possible bot message that started this past Friday and it went out to several contacts again today at around 10:49 EDT this morning. It says that that Hotmail has reported possible child abuse on your account and it gives a web site to go to for more info. So if anyone has any thought as what to do about this pleas let me know. It turns out that site is a fishing site according to one contact who got this message from mine this morning. Thanks.

The trouble I am having is with a document I use as a template for my class papers. Normally, as one writes a paper in the template in MS Word inserts the page breaks automatically and as a person reads down the screen with JAWS 10 the text automatically scrolls so JAWS can read it. As of late MS word has taken to putting the body of the paper on one page even though it has several pages worth of text. When JAWS and sighted people read the document only part of the first page of the body of the document actually shows. The document has a title page that shows properly then the body of the document and finally a reference page. My question is, how do I get this body of the paper to automatically break in to individual pages? Thanks for your help.

Several people on this list and the Jaws Users list have had issues with the Autosizer program, including David Ferrin if I am not mistaken. I am not trying to bash the program but, I am stating what has happened. All you have to do is uninstall the program and reinstall it. In my personal experience I have only had trouble with the updated versions beyond version 1.6 and so I leave the box unchecked for the program to update automatically. Below is a direct download link for the 1.6 version. Also Jacob, could you explain to me how you were able to change the sound Autosizer makes when it maximizes a window? My sound doesn't work whether that box is checked or not. http://www.jaws-users.com/programs/Utilities/AutoSizer1.6.html I hope this helps you with your focus issues. Take care. Mike

Hi Thank you for the help. You are right, control does give a page break.

The trouble I am having is with a document I use as a template for my class papers. Normally, as one writes a paper in the template in MS Word inserts the page breaks automatically and as a person reads down the screen with JAWS 10 the text automatically scrolls so JAWS can read it. As of late MS word has taken to putting the body of the paper on one page even though it has several pages worth of text. When JAWS and sighted people read the document only part of the first page of the body of the document actually shows. The document has a title page that shows properly then the body of the document and finally a reference page. My question is, how do I get this body of the paper to automatically break in to individual pages? Thanks for your help.
