Robert, it's a good question, and I don't know the answer.
But one thing I should point out is that it's better to force lines to be lined up, than it is to see if they are, and then if they don't look lined up, then space or tab over until they do. this means learning how to use tabs, or justification, indents, and that kind of thing which will force it. I'm going to look at adding this as a hotkey to my MS Word script though. oh, one more thing, there is a window-eyes command which tells you where your cursor is on the screen; it would sort of help you in judging if two lines are lined up, by seeing if you move the cursor to the start of each line, if the pixel values this command gives you are the same. I believe is control and numberpad plus. hth, Chip -----Original Message----- From: Robert Ringwald [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, March 12, 2011 5:23 PM To: GWMicro List Subject: Help Word 2003 with WE 7.2 & XP XP WE 7.2 Word 2003 When trying to line up text in the middle of a page, the status line says column 28 on the beginning of the writing on both lines. But my sighted daughter says they weren't lined up. I had to put the 2nd line on column 36 to make it line up with the line above which the status line says column 28. Why? What can I do to be able to rely on the info on the status line? --Bob Ringwald www.ringwald.com Fulton Street Jazz Band 530/ 642-9551 Office 916/ 806-9551 Cell Amateur (Ham) Radio K6YBV My wife was hinting about what she wanted for our upcoming anniversary.
