Hi Jim, Thanks for writing all these instructions down and posting them. I really like them and learn a lot from them. I know they are a lot of work. It is so nice to be able to arrow down and try the steps as a person follow along. Keep up the good work. To my brother in Christ. Ed

This is the 7th part, in our 9 part series, of the Settings area in w-10. Again, this is a general look at the Settings area in w-10, this is not a detailed how to guide. In the future I hope to do some more how to guides for w-10. Right now, I am trying to finish a general look, at the Settings area in w-10. Then we will go on from there, based on your feedback and needs. I do not want to waist my time or yours, producing material that is not helpful for you. So, please give me your feedback on these txt files. I hope that they show you in general, how to get around in the Settings area of w-10, and how to change settings according to your personal preferences. If I have accomplished this, then good, that was my intent, but if not, then I need to change the way I am doing the files. One thing is for sure, there are not too many, if any, tutorials on using w-10 with Jaws. So, over time, I will do my part, in making some audio and TXT files available for the Blind community.

Watch the snowflakes as they fall, all are different, large and small Look at the snowflakes as they fall, they are One of God's treasures, created for all. Consider Him, as the blizzard blows, let Him warm your heart, and give Him your soul. Take a walk with Him daily in the snow, pray and meditate on Him whenever you go. Remember, God loves you and I, trust in His salvation before you die. Author: Jim Flusche GO BUCKEYES! Win another National title...
