Have you checked out the following? 'Taken from the Help information of the app.
This may be a silly question, but, do you have comments/revisions enabled? If you are unable to figure out the answer from the help text, you may want to contact Chip on the Scripting list as he is the default expert on the Word Advanced app. If what you want isn't currently possible, he may be able/willing to add it. Other information which can be spoken by the app includes document line numbers, footnote and endnote numbers and/or their associated text, document comments (their text and/or any of 4 other pieces of comment information), and tracked changes revisions (the type of revision, the revised text, a description of any formatting changes, and optionally the author and the date/time of the revision). Also possible is the speaking of font color, highlight color, and shading colors (shading can be done with color, as well as the standard pattern of gray dots). All of these are options in the preferences dialog, found in the Window-Eyes control panel, Apps menu, in the menu item for the Word Advanced Features app. The speaking of footnotes, endnotes, comments, and revisions, is done in their proper place by this app when reading a line or paragraph, and may be done using an alternate voice to help distinguish their text from the text of the document being read. This does not mean however that you should never use the Window-Eyes verbosity Word-specific settings for these items, since when you navigate one character at a time the app does not speak any of this information; however, Window-Eyes does if you have the correct Window-Eyes verbosity settings enabled, and this may better allow you to find exactly where some information begins or ends. This is a matter of preference however; the app is not affected by the verbosity settings.

From: Katherine Moss [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, December 11, 2011 3:44 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Right-click menu options pertaining to comments and revisions in Word 2010 not being read Hello all, I figured that more than a few of you would benefit from this fact. In case no one is aware, for people who make heavy use of word's comment feature, if you want to manipulate (delete, edit, ETC) any of the comments, with WE, it doesn't work. I had to switch back to JAWS to get those options to show up in speech terms. (WE knows that they're there, it just doesn't read them.)
