Shannon,
The "enhanced support" checkbox is available on a per document basis,
and hence you must be working in Word when you bring up the WE control
panel. If a document is open, you open WE, navigate to
Verbosity/Office/Word/Miscellaneous and are not able to access this
item, then there might be something else afoot.
Regards,
Steve

Good morning. I was trying to investigate the document specific
settings, to see if I could set WE to speak differently on a
particular document.
WE is too chatty when I need to use this document. I have to press
CTRL a few times to stop WE so I can start interacting with it. This
particular document is a mail merge document and I don't need to know
about its headings or all that stuff that WE wants to tell me. I
wanted to see if I could stop some of the verbosity for this document
alone. Hence the investigation into the Document specific settings.
I went to the manual first for help.
A note about the manual. I can't stand it. I liked it better when
there was a way to jump to related items from a topic with the links
in the page or the next and previous links that used to be present.
They have been gone for a while now. This means after you read the
page you have to f6 back into the search box, tab back into the list
of searched results and arrow through them and then enter on that item
and f6 back into the help text. Very inefficient.
It was my third trip through the tree of knowledge to find how to set
the word enhanced behavior to off as the manual states it can be
disabled.
I will paste the text of the manual below.
The instructions say that the ability to turn this setting off is in
Verbosity office word miscellaneous.
I went and looked and there is not a setting referring to enhanced
settings in this area.
So If this is still an option where is it?
I don't even know if it will do what I want but I can't even use the
manuals instructions to try it.
If this is no longer an option the manual is miss leading. If this is
still an option then the manual needs to be fixed to reflect the steps
to accomplish the desired settings.
Manual text below.

Disabling Enhanced Word Support
If you encounter a document
that does not read correctly with Window-Eyes enhanced Word support,
you have the
option to revert back to the older method of accessing the
document
. To turn this feature on or off, open the
Verbosity/Office/Word/Miscellaneous area
of the Window-Eyes control panel. This is a per
document setting, and will not be stored in any set file. If you have
a document
that you think is not reading correctly, you should first contact
support to verify
that the
document is causing problems. If you find that the document
is at fault, you can turn the Window-Eyes enhanced Word support off
for that specific
document ..
