Hmm. Weird!
So, there definitely are some issues moving character by character. I'll
definitely report these things.

Subject: Re: Irritating problem with Word
Hi,
I don’t see exactly this in my end. However what i see is that when i get to
the end of a line and change to a new line,VO reads the last word of the line 2
times, one for when it passes into the new line, then when you hit otpion+left
it speaks the word again and tracks correctly, well it tracks correctly all the
time for that matter. I don’t think it’s a deal breaker but it’s certainly one
thing one should look out for. If one’s uncertain you could move over the last
word on a row using only the cursor keys to get moving by character.

So, in the new update to MS Word, I'm noticing something very irritating.
I'd be very much willing to call the Accessibility Help Desk and let them know
about this bug, but I don't want to do so until someone else can reproduce the
issue, as maybe it's just me, I dono.
Anyway, so if I'm in a document typing along, then need to move word by
word, regardless if I'm first interacting with the text area or not, if I press
option+left or right arrow to move word by word, option+left arrow to move to
the previous word gives very inconsistent and sometimes very weird results.
Usually it moves to the previous word, but it doesn't speak the previous word.
It normally instead speaks the current word the cursor was on. Then if I press
it again a second time, it still speaks that same word again and again
regardless how many times I press it. The insertion point is moving correctly,
it's just that Voiceover's not tracking it correctly. Then, if I option+right
arrow to move to the next word, again, the cursor moves, but consistently 100%
of the time, Voiceover is audibly saying absolutely nothing and is staying
totally silent.
I can move reliably left and right arrow character by character, but not
word by word. So, whoops there.
Again, I'm happy to file this with them, but I just want to see if any of
you guys are also getting these same results.
Try going to a blank document and typing:
Hello, this is a test.
Then try moving around with option+left and right arrows.
Chris.
