Re: [JAWS-Users] Weather No Longer Working on Research It
John, Research it is where you can look up different items in the categories available on their list. To use it, press your JAWS command key followed quickly with the space bar and you should hear a little click, after the click press the letter r for research it. To get your weather, type in your zip code then press the tab key and then there is a list of the categories available to you, now press the letter w for weather and it will bring up your local weather. When you do the JAWS space bar this puts you into what is called the layered keystrokes. After you bring up the research it and press tab you can arrow up and down to see what all is available to you. Have fun playing with this.

[JAWS-Users] Getting Jaws to switch language or voice profile within a spreadsheet or table columns
Hello list, Im going to guess that this cant be done, but perhaps a knowledgeable Jaws user can enlighten me. I with Jaws would like to be able to have the synthesizer switch between different voice profiles when navigating between columns either in an Excel spreadsheet or a table in a Word document. In my case, for language learning purposes. Similar to a flashcard system. Jaws has gotten better over the years with multilingual support, but even with the most recent update with the CTL+Win-Key+L command, its still not terribly efficient. More so in a circumstance such as this. There are iOS flashcard apps that do work quite nicely with Voiceover, but I dont always want to work off of my phone. Can one by any chance mark a region in a spreadsheet or table, be it a column or row and associate that area to a voice/language profile in jaws for a more fluid experience. I am studying to obtain federal court certified Spanish language certification and need to work on terminology and vocabulary. I guess the same situation could be applied to any learning circumstance where one wishes to use a flashcard type of format, but anyway Id like to simply be able with the arrow keys go back and forth among the columns and have Jaws provide me with the proper pronunciation instead of English or Spanish for both terms. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Cristobal For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Re: [JAWS-Users] sskype out of alt tab order
Hi. Is this skype for desktop? If so focus that skype window, hit ctrl+comma. Wait about an hour for the options screen to open. When it does, in the tree view you land on, hit the end key so you start at the bottom since its closer, up arrow from there looking for advanced settings. For me 4 presses is right. Tab into that 3 times looking for "keep Skype in the Taskbar while I'm Signed In". Uncheck that and hit enter. That should make it so alt+f4 works. You can also close Skype completely, find it in the system tray, hit the context key on it and choose quit. Tell it that you really do want to do it and that's done. It'll come back on reboot if it is set to.
