Hey Brendon,
I'm not sure if Richard's post on the different Outlook find command and
the Window-Eyes mouse find commands are what you were looking for. But
here's what I did in Word.
I'm not sure what you mean when you say after two searches. I just did
multiple searches in Word, opening and closing the find dialog, and
doing more than one search without closing the dialog. They all worked.
And I didn't lose speech or the ability to navigate the find dialog.
The Read active window hot key does read more than the find dialog. So
it's not of much help. But just tabbing around speaks everything anyway.
Regards,
Tom

Tom,
Yes, that is how it is to work but it doesn't, after two search terms, Window
Eyes stoppes reading the dialog box. Strange, Broken as broken as you can get.
This has been reported to GW and they said that they would look into it.
Thank you.
Brendon Donohue.

Please Help
If the search term is not found you will hear either nothing or search
the document and the text you entered. If it is found you will hear Next
search button and be placed on that button.
Pressing escape will put you on the text you searched for.
But if you tab down you will be put in a list of all occurrences of the
word or phrase you searched for, showing them in context. Select from
that list and press enter on the one you want to go to and then press
escape to go to it.
If you don't see that list, Shift-Tab until you land on a set of tab
controls and make sure that the Browse the results from your current
search is the active tab.
Hth,
Tom

Wren,
Thank you for your email and your question. At this time, the word 2010 find
dialog is broken with Window Eyes and doesn’t speak. At this time, this affects
all windows screen readers and none of them speak the dialog. I am not Shaw
what the issue is, but it is Shaw annoying at least. I have reported this to
GW, Freedom Scientific, and NVAccess. But none of these companies have done
anything about this as of yet. This would be really good if this was resolved.
Hint to GW!
Thank you.
Brendon Donohue.

Hi all, and thank you for the help.
I have Microsoft Office 2010 on my computer, but I can’t get the find command
“control f” to work for me. There are a lot of buttons that I don’t know how to
use. Any and all help would be very much appreciated. I have the latest version
Of Window-Eyes.
GOD BLESS,
Wren
