I had the same problem with JAWS 11 and MS Office 7 at work. I was told
it was some kind of video issue. The only fix I found was the
installation of JAWS 12 or going back to JAWS 9. Good old JAWS9, because
now with JAWS 12 I have a problem with it and the Braille display in
Lotus Notes.
Ah, technology.

Hi folks,
Yeah, I know, long time no post. Well, for me, JAWS typically does
what it is supposed to do. Anyway, I recently upgraded to JFW 12, and
MS Office 2010 on a Windows XP box. Since then, I am having issues
working with Office documents that I had created with MS Office 2003.
Using the PC cursor doesn't do anything from my perspective. I had a
sightling take a look at the screen, and with the PC cursor active,
and using the arrow keys, they say they can see the system cursor
moving but JAWS will only speak the top line of the Word document. It
repeats it with each cursor movement, but refuses to read the actual
new line that the system cursor is moving over.
Using JAWS-key plus up arrow always reads the top line of the document.
Using the JAWS cursor, I can read the other lines on the screen, but
that is relatively useless.
I had the same issue in Excel where it appeared to me to never leave a
certain cell, but the system cursor was actually moving from cell to
cell, but JAWS-key plus c always reported the same cell coordinates.
Somehow, and I have no idea how, I got it to stop doing that in Excel,
but I haven't been able to bludgeon Word into behaving properly yet.
I've tried routing PC to JAWS and no luck. I tried maximizing and
zooming but no luck.
Any ideas?
