Ken, it sounds like perhaps the office Assistant got turned on somehow. That will block the right side of your screen and Jaws, for some reason or other, doesn't recognize it. I suggest you go into the Tools menu, locate the Office Assistant and make sure it's turned off. Jaws acts like that when part of a screen is obscured by something.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] can't read full lines in word 2003


Hello everyone,

For some strange reason, after the last Microsoft update, when I try to read a document in word 2003 line by line, JAWS will read about 3 quarters of the line across the page and then stops without reading the rest of the line.

It reads the whole line if I do the say all command, but line by line is cut off.

I know there is a setting that will make word read the entire line, but I forget what it is.

Please help.

Just another quick question while I'm writing. Is there a way to mute JAWS? I usually turn JAWS off when I need to and then I have hot keys set to start it back up again, but was wondering if I could just mute it then unmute it without actually unloading and reloading it.

Thanks,

Ken
