Hello,
Do the following:
Press control plus backslash to open the Window-Eyes control panel.
Press alt, h, v to open advanced settings.
Press K for keyboard.
Arrow down to special keys and tab once.
This should say global. If you want all of your keys to speak, tab once
more. If you only want to hear control and alt, etc., press the
spacebar on this button and then tab once.
Arrow up once to Yes.
Press control plus S to save your settings.
Press alt, h, v to close the advanced settings.
Press alt plus E to return to the main node.
Left arrow until you hear keyboard closed.
Shift plus tab once to minimize and press enter to close the Window-Eyes
control panel.

Hi All,
I'm a new WE user and have been using Outlook Express for years with JAWS. I'm
working my way through the tutorial, but have a slew of questions. I'm hoping
two for starters is okay.
It seems that in a bunch of OE command the Control, alt keys as Control-F for
forward or alt-i in spelling to ignore the suggestion, WE only speaks the
letter f or whatever is part of the keystroke instead of Control F etc. It
looks like WE says normal Windows commands such as Control C for copy the way
I'm used to hearing it as Control C. Is this normal Window-Eyes behavior and
can it be changed so I can hear the whole keystroke again as I do now with JAWS?
Also, when composing mail in OE, when typing in the information for the
headings WE seems to be saying something like to rich edit, Subject rich edit
and I'd like it to stop saying rich or whatever it is saying.
I'm running XP Home with SP3 and Window-Eyes is currently set at beginner level
or whatever WE calls it.
Thanks,
Margaret
