In Word 2013 it is just past the file list for what is chosen in the tree structure. I am not sure for Word 2007 but it should be just after the list of files or perhaps before it. When you find the headers use your right and left arrow keys to move header to header. Find the Name choice and press enter key. The Name header is likely the first header and if it is then just press enter key to reverse the sort order according to that header. You can use arrow keys to the various headers and press enter key to do the type of sort you want for the list of files. It is dependent on what headers you have set in Windows Explorer. Take care.

[JAWS-Users] Avast updates not speaking
Hi List I run two computers; one with XP and JAWS 10 and one with Windows 7 and JAWS 13. Both have the same version of Avast but the one on the windows XP machine announces the daily updates and the windows 7 machine not. I've checked that both machines receive the updates at the same time of the day. I've played around with the Windows 7 and JAWS 13 machine's verbosity settings but this does not make any change so far. Does anyone perhaps know what the reason can be that the windows 7 machine does not announce the updates?

I can't give you exact directions because I am not sure if Win 7 would have the same layout as my Vista laptop, especially since I set up my Vista in classic view. Another alternative is to cut out a thin piece of cardboard and tape it over the touchpad.

You can get Vista or Win 7 home editions with 64-bit systems. The maximum memory in a 32-bit system is calculated as 2 times the 32nd power minus 1. You are basically limited to 4 GB, although in practicality, Windows won't recognize more than about 3.5GB. 64-bit systems are almost unlimited, I've seen 16GB and I am sure you could theoretically get more but don't know of any that have any more than that.

Re: [JAWS-Users] daily information
Hi, This daily information is a wonderful idea!!! The two tips so far on spam are very valuable. I've often been hesitant to use my address on such communications, but they don't always leave one an option. I'll definitely try it. DERICK -Original Message- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Dan Rossi Sent: 10 December 2010 04:26 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] daily information Interestingly, I was just having a conversation about spam and harvesting of email addresses, just the other day. One function that is available in the email specification that most people do not know about, and even some email clients won't support is the extended address. You can put a plus sign between your ID and the at sign. And then you can put anything you want between the plus sign and at sign. Most email clients will just accept the information between the plus and at, and ignore it. Why is this useful? You can use that information to more easily filter incoming spam, or see just who has sold your email addi to the spammers. For example, say I am leaving my address on some blog site, because it requires an email address to leave a comment or something. I can put in, as my address. dr25+blogcomm...@andrew.cmu.edu If I ever get an email from somewhere and the To address is dr25+blogcomm...@andrew, I know where they got the address from. Or, say I want to make use of a one time coupon or something on a web site, but know they will start sending me crap every week, stuff that I don't want. I can sign up on the site with an email address of dr25+nos...@andrew.cmu.edu and then create a rule in my email client that says, anything with a To address of dr25+NoSpam, or even just anything with NoSpam in the To header, just delete it. It doesn't always work because some web sites won't accept the extended address, or they are smart enough to remove any extended part of the address when they spam you.

Somewhere I read in an article that changing the total volume of an already recorded file is indeed possible, but just cannot find the correct information. I am now not so sure whether the information is there but that I cannot reach it with JAWS. Is there perhaps some GoldWave and JAWS user that can help?
