Thanks for that tip Vic; have to say I've never seen the document area of Word fail to get focus, but I'll keep that in mind. I wonder if it could have anything to do with not maximizing the window?

Then I left click in there some where. Now I can use control+home to move the cursor to the top of the document. Now read-to-end works as well as the arrow keys.

This just means someone created that document with Word 2003 or earlier, and Word isn't using features newer than those. One possible reason you don't hear text would be if you received the document via email or downloaded it; in those cases Windows flags the document as possibly dangerous, and Word 2010 or later displays it in "protected view". In this view I believe Window-Eyes won't read the text of the document. There are instructions on the GW knowledgebase for getting a document out of protected view (you can go through the Word "file" menu or use windows explorer and go to the file properties).
