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.

HTH.

Russell

Subject: Laptop keystrokes for various forms mode please

Hi List, just quickly, does anyone know the laptop keystrokes to move
through the various forms mode for a word 2013 form? I can access all the
edit areas without difficulty but can't read the protected text on the form.

Thanks, 
Jo
