I haven't noticed the highlighting problem.

The table does not say non-uniform columns, but this is a .doc file, so
I hear compatability mode.

As for the calculator, I haden't updated the set files because the
version numbers are the same; however, I think I will update all of my
set files, just to make sure.

Jeff,

Just grasping at straws here, but have you tried updating your set files
for each of these apps from the factory defaults?

 

I tried the calculator and can't duplicate the issue (unless it's one of
those that only happens after having it open for a while?)

 

As for the tables in Word, do you know if you are working with a
non-uniform table?  (WE will tell you this when you first enter a
table).  when you are, not all of the cells may have a row/column
number, or may speak properly, because there is a problem accessing
table cells if they aren't uniform.

 

I will mention though I have my own issue with Word, and it having been
running for a while.  Sometimes I find window-eyes stops reading
anything which is highlighted after I have been working in Word for a
long time (it won't even read it's own control panel), and I have to
restart it; so I am suspicious that there is something up with Word and
WE.  Have you ever seen this?

 

Chip

I have noticed two problems with WE7.52 where settings seem to fade
away.

 

The first is in Word 2007, windows XP SP3: When reading down the column
in a table with insert-down arrow, usually the row and column numbers
speak.When a file has been opened for a time and I come back to it, the
row and column numbers do not speak.  Sometimes I can alt-tab away and
back the this will fix the problem.

 

Another example is when using Windows Calculator: When I do division
such as 17/29

When I hear the answer, I only hear the ending part of the decimal
portion of the answer with no 0 or decimal point.  In this case, I
usually have to restart Window-eyes to make this work again.

I can tell the longer answer is there, because I can copy it to the
clipboard and paste it back in Notepad.

I am pretty sure that this started when 7.50 came out.
