Hi Jo, When the form was created help text should have been added to each form field. When a form field is inserted into a Word document, you can place the cursor on the form field, press the applications key, and choose "Properties". Then you can tab to the "Add Help Text" button and press enterr. You will be taken to a dialogue box that allows you to type help text, and choose for the text to appear in the status bar. For example, if you insert a field for First Name, the help text you would type would be "First name". That way when you tab to a form field with Jaws, the help text will be read by Jaws. If this isn't the case, you might be able to read the protected text by routing the Jaws cursor to the PC cursor... I'm not sure about this though.

I can access all the edit areas without difficulty but can't read the protected text on the form.
