Try restarting jaws. It worked for me before.

The tab key will move between the buttons and the supposed list box, yes,
but I tried to explain that my problem is that I cannot arrow through the
suggested words at all, to pick the correct one.

Just tab one time you will be in the suggestions.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Office 2010 spell-check and JAWS

Hello everyone.

So I'm now running Windows 10, JAWS 18 and . Office 2010. I would like to
upgrade to office 2016 sometime, but for now, this is just what I've got.
The thing is, I used to have office 2000 at home o my old XP machine. I
think I almost never used the spell-check. I had something against them,
generally. Whaddyamean I need the computer's help to spell? Well, I got over
it, mostly because of work. At this former workplace of mine, they got on
board with office 2016 pretty quickly, and I used the spell-check there with
success. You had to hit f6 to get over to the correct payne even though jAWS
would usually announce results before you did this, or else things would not
behave as they should, but generally it worked rather well. Now, I find that
when I hit "f7" in Word 2010, for instance, I get feedback from the
spell-check, but even though JAWS says "list box" and appears to be focused
on the list of suggested word replacements, arrowing up or down just reads
the line of my document with the error. F6 does absolutely nothing, so it
seems. The "change", "ignore", etc buttons seem to work as they should, but
. "change" isn't much good without being actually able to select a word
choice. I can hit escape to modify the document manually, which I'm sort of
ok with, actually, but this is still a bit inconvenient. What am I missing?
Is this just what I can expect from JAWS and Office 2010? I'm using "print
view" layout in Word, which is of course where I want to do most of my
spell-checking, if that makes any difference. Any ideas?



Thanks.
