Hi Alan, If we don't draw the line somewhere, this list will be nothing more than a copy of the blind-tech list, which was not my desire when I created this list in 2007. At the time the list was started,the focus was laptops and desktop PCs and their peripherals. Now that the list belongs to Dave, he will always have the final say in any decision and the management team will follow his lead. If you think about it, technically, most of todays electronics can be considered computers of sorts, but they are not within the scope of this list.

Hi GM, I posed your problem to another list the replies are below. Your question: Good morning I seem to be having some difficulty with Microsoft Word 2007. Not able to read anything I type in the document, internet, or my email. I'm using Jaws 11.0 and Windows Vista. I've even maximized the window with no success, even performed a repair. What am I doing wrong, and could someone help me solve the problem? It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Flor From: Flor Lynch To: Technology list for the Blind and Vision Impaired Hi Mike, Just some suggestions, since there's a lot open there. Your friend indicates first, that he is having a problem in Microsoft word, that he can't type anything there. he then goes on to say, that he can't type anything in email or in Internet Explorer either. So, can he type anything (like in any other program), at all? or does he mean that he can type and it comes out ok but that JAWS isn't echoing it in any way? (That can be fixed, as you know.) has he tried typing with a demo of another screen reader, or a free one? How about the keyboard? Is that OK?

Hi GM, Here are a couple of things to look at but, first I need to say that I don't run Vista nor do I run Jaws11. Go to the control panel display . In Display make sure that on the Desktop page that is set on, Bliss, on the Screensaver page it is set on none, on the Settings page it is set for 1024 by 768. Also, did you install any programs or toolbars that might be interfering with Jaws? Or, what exactly did you do directly before this problem began? Take care.
