Hi, Mike. OK, I found Wordpad. The reason you can't use the same features as
in Word is that the document being edited is a text document, not a
Word-style document, which can be marked up with headings, etc.
Text documents don't have the same options as Word-style documents. For
example, in Word, you can press JAWS key plus Z and turn navigation keys on
and off. After turning navigation keys on, you cannot edit the document, but
you can move between headings, etc.
In WordPad, since there are no headings, etc., there are no navigation keys.

Subject: using the same set up in wordpad that is used in microsoft word
hi guys:
I would like to know if there is a way that I can use the same voice
features in wordpad like we have in microsoft word. What I’m asking is, I
wish to have the ability to tell me the font and all that stuff when I use
insert-f or alt-delete; in wordpad like it does in ms word. For instance,
when I hit alt-delete in word it says something like “3 inches from left,
5 inches from top, page 3...” or whatever. If I do this in wordpad, I get
“1, 10” or something like that which is relatively meaningless?
I guess what I want is all the same settings that come up in word, I wish
them for wordpad?
I hope I haven’t confused anyone but it surely would be helpful to use
this.
Please keep in mind, I’m not very technological on this stuff so please be
overly descriptive with your directions on what to do.
Assume I am a child on this one, I will do whatever directions say to do.
Thank you very much for reading this; and hope to hear from someone soon.
Sincerely:
Mike M.
