It sounds at first blush like you were told to change a setting that told Word to not allow multiple instances, but I wasn't able to find any such setting in my copy of Word 2003: what version of Word are you using? CTRL+F6 is the Word command to move to the next window, so perhaps there's a setting to open each document in a separate window, but I didn't see that, either. Do any of these ring a bell?
Also, is the Office Assistant turned off? That often can block text. What view are you using? Is the Startup Task Pane turned on or off? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sharon" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, December 01, 2006 7:25 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] Re: Alt-Tab I have a strange question also connected with alt tab. This problem only happened after a tech support call with Freedom Scientific, and I don't know what they told me to do to cause it but ever since . . . The only way to move between MS Word documents is with Control f6. Alt tab only switches between applications, and does not switch me from one doc to another in the same application. Also, if I close one document in MS Word, they all seem to close. This is driving my crazy since I have to work with multiple documents at once. Also, there are many times when Jaws can't read me the text but the window is maximized. It's like something is blocking it. The line just appears to be blank. Sometimes Jaws will read the same line twice when I'm actually on the line below that one. Anyone know what might possibly be going on? I don't feel like having our IT person have to completely reinstall Windows and Office. This happens with Jaws 8 as well as Jaws 7.1.
