Hi,

I had difficulty with Microsoft Word ever since I installed Jaws 8. Part of 
the document was protected and if I went back into the document to edit 
something, it wouldn't take me to the precise point where I needed to be and 
I had trouble deleting.after consulting with a few knowledgeable people and 
calling Freedom Scientific the problem still persisted so I installed Office 
2007. My Microsoft Word was from Microsoft Works 2002 so that may have 
contributed to the problem.

Is there anything I can do to make Office 2007 and Jaws the most compatible?
