Hi Tom, I wanted to respond to your message with some tips regarding using Window-Eyes and Track Changes in Word. This domain is one of the more powerful and useful features of Word but also one of the more complex to use. Here are a few suggestions: 1. You should change the way revisions are displayed to show them in balloons to allow Window-Eyes to read the revisions properly. This setting can be changed in the Tracking group of the ribbon under Show Markup, balloons 2. If you want to find comments or revisions that have been added to a document, I would recommend using the Page Navigation dialog (Insert-Tab) as it will give the ability to list revisions and comments that are in the document and then jump to the position in the document where the revisions and comments have been added 3. If you want to take action upon a revision (accept, reject), I would recommend navigating to the revision and then using the context menu to find these options instead of going in and out of the ribbon 4. You can also press Alt-Left bracket and Alt-Right bracket to jump from revision to revision in your document. These are Window-Eyes hotkeys. Once you find a revision in your document, use the context menu options to accept or reject it. 5. One you jump to the position in a document where a comment has been inserted, open the context menu and choose edit comment. This will place your focus in the comment balloon and allow you to read and edit it. You can press ESC to leave the comment and return to the document. 6. Adding comments to a document involves selecting the text you wish to comment on and then selecting the add comment item from the Review tab of the ribbon. 7. To add revisions, you need to turn on Track Changes. The Word keyboard shortcut is CTRL-SHIFT-E (it is a toggle) but you will need to use the Window-Eyes bypass command since this is also a Window-Eyes hotkey. I hope you find this information helpful.
