David, Another option or work around would be to "spell" the string of numbes with the JAWS and pressing the #5 key on the num pad quickly

MSWord? HJPad? if so, just follow the instructions I sent in earlier. There are 2 ways to open the configuration manager. 1. First way; Press Insert+ 6 on the #row. 2. Second way; Press Insert+F2, arrow down to configuration manager and press enter. You now have the configuration manager opened. note, you may want jaws to read digits in only word, so, you can do the following; 1, open the program in which your going to be reading these numbers, example, account number, or, card number.; 2, press insert+#row6=Microsoft JCF jaws configuration manager. 3. Now, press, Alt+S= open set options menu. 4. When the set options menu opens you press the letter "t"= text processing option 5. Tab and here you can make your choice of #processing, you use the arrow keys to select your choice. 6. Now that you have the #processing choice selected,tab to okay and press the spacebar or, the enter-key to close. 7. Press Alt + F4 to close and Jaws will ask you if you want to save your changes. Choose yes and press enter. hope this helps. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joanne" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, May 12, 2010 10:48 AM Subject: [JAWS-Users] reading numbers > What I want to be able to do, and I don't know if it's possible, is to > read a list of numbers as single digits.
