Re: [JAWS-Users] EXTERNAL NUM PAD COMPATIBLE WITH JAWS ?
Josh, I looked at a few external num pads a couple of years ago, among which was a Targus PAKP004E. I looked at it with JAWS 6.2 and 8, and found all keystrokes worked seem okay except for those that involve NumPad 5, which did nothing. The num pad came with a BTC compact keyboard and had two extra keys - BackSpace in the top right corner and 000 between Insert and Delete. It also had a USB connection and two USB ports in the back. Those details may help you work out if you have the same model.

Hello all I was wondering if a external num pad made by Targus is cmpatible with JAWS? I don't have the laptop at this point in time but will be receiving it in a few days. I also want to note that I was told it said on the package that it said plug and play I don't know if that will make a difference or not. Thank you in advance for any help offered on the matter.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Word count short Cut Key
Mark, By default the status bar in Word 2007 includes the word count, so you should also be able to get it with Insert + PageDown or F6 to move focus to the status line and then RightArrow to the word count. Shift + F6 will then take you back to the document. In both cases you get something like Words: X/Y where X is the number of words in the selection and Y is the total number of words in the document.

Re: [JAWS-Users] ~WRL1853.tmp file, what is this?
Estelita, Can't explain the slowness of your document, but the file you mention is a temporary file that Word creates when it needs to and deletes automatically when it's finished with. These kind of files are created and deleted all the time by Windows, and you shouldn't need to worry about them. Trying to delete them isn't a good idea unless they have old dates, when you can be pretty sure they have been left behind by mistake.

Estelita, The Customize dialogue has three pages, and it sounds like you've come in on the Toolbars page. Try pressing Ctrl + Tab to move to the Commands page.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Finding italics
Alan, Another way to find bold or italic is to press Ctrl + F for the find dialogue, then press Ctrl + I for italic text or Ctrl + B for bold. Each of these cycles through three possibilities; for italic these are find italic, find not italic, find whether italic or not. If you lose track of how many time you've pressed Ctrl + I, you can use the JAWS cursor to read the line under the Find What edit, where the formatting information to be included in the search appears as static text.

Use CTRL-F to bring up the find dialog box. 2. Use tab key to move to the more button and press spacebar. 3. Use shift-tab keystroke to move to the format menu button and press enter key. 4. Press enter key on the font choice in the resultant menu. 5.Use tab key to the font style list and use down arrow until you get to the bold choice and press enter key. 6. Use tab key to the find next choice and press the spacebar. JAWS should find and speak the first occurrence of bold text that is found. Use the find next button to find additional text that is bold in the document. You can also use the find dialog to find underlined text. In the font dialog instead of pressing enter key on the bold choice just continue to use tab key to move to the underline style choice. Use down arrow key in the underline style list or perhaps alt+down arrow to open the list and then down arrow key. The above is quite helpful in large documents.

Re: [JAWS-Users] I'm frustrated I tried to change home page andcannot
I'd not worry too much about what's in the box already. Load the page you want as your home page, open the Tools menu and choose Internet Options, Tab to the Use current button and press it. That will change your home page to the address you're on. If you want a blank page when you start Internet Explorer, there is a Use Blank button which does what it says. If you have Internet Explorer 7, where you can have multiple home pages, you just need to open all the pages you want, make sure focus is on the specific one you want to have focus when you start Internet Explorer again, and then go to Tools, Internet Options, Use Current. I think you're restricted to about six or seven home pages, but that's enough for most people!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft word question
Rich, It sounds like you've got your list of files in Thumbnails view, where they are in rows and columns. So long as your version of Word is later than 97, the following should work. After you've pressed Control O, press Tab until you're on the Look In combo, then Tab once more to get to a button. This is actually the first in a horizontal list so press RightArrow until you get to Views listbox and then DownArrow to List or Details and press Enter. List will just give you the filenames, Details will give you other information like date and size as well.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Reading header levels in MS-Word
Annette, If you mean headings rather than headers, Insert + F6 gives a list of headings with the level of each at the end of it. Press Enter on one to jump to it. Or, press Insert + Z to turn quick keys on. Then use H to jump to a heading, and JAWS will give the level. It's a bit like reading a web page - in quick key mode you can't edit but you can use all the reading keys and single letters to jump to various elements. Shift + H to jump to the previous heading. Press Insert + Z again to turn quick keys off if you need to do any editing. While quick keys is on, press Insert + H to get a list of keystrokes which will start with all the quick keys.

Re: [JAWS-Users] more on sorting in word
Karen, Annette, I just did this in Word 2003 in the following way: Select the text, open the Table menu and choose Sort. In the Sort by drop-down I had two options: paragraphs and field 1; Tab to the Options button and press it. DownArrow to Other radio button and focus jumps into the associated edit. Press SpaceBar to replace the default hyphen character with a space; Tab to and press the OK button to return to the Sort Text dialogue. Tab to the Sort By drop down and it should now have three options: paragraphs, Word 1 and Word 2. The first time I did this it had Word 1 but not Word 2. I pressed OK just to close the dialogue, then went back into the dialogue and the Word 2 entry was in the Sort By list and I could sort by it. I don't know if this was a glitch on my system or a problem with the Sort feature. Every time I've tried it since, the entries in the Sort By drop-down tracked the changes I made in the Sort Options dialogue.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS and the brailliant braille display
Kathy, I've installed the Brailliant for a number of people. JAWS doesn't contain the Brailliant drivers so you can't install it from the JAWS end, either as part of a JAWS install or by adding a Braille display afterwards. Although this makes it more difficult to get going, the feedback I've had about the display makes it worthwhile! You should have got a CD with the Brailliant. Put the CD in the drive. Plug the Braille display in and it will start the new hardware wizard. Don't connect to Windows Update to search for the software, but if the automatic installation doesn't pick up the drivers, point to the folder Drivers on the CD and it will install the USB drivers for the Brailliant. Two installs are needed, the first for Brailliant 64, the second for Brailliant 64 USB Serial port. Both will bring up a message about not [having] passed Windows Logo testing Ignore these warnings and install anyway. Next, go into the Device Manager (System Properties dialogue, Hardware page) and, under Ports (COM LPT), find the Brailliant. It will have a Com Port assigned to it. Note the number. On the CD, find the JAWS folder and start the driver install setup. It will prompt for the type of connection, the size of the Braille display and the com port number. If there is more than one version of JAWS installed, it will default to the highest version, but you can choose an earlier one if you want. Restart JAWS and you should find the display comes up. You might need to go to JAWS, Options menu, Braille and find it in the list for the default. If you need more detail on the above, please ask.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS Reading in English and French At Different Times
Vicky, It's possible that some names are identified in Word as being French, and JAWS is automatically switching to a French synthesiser to read them. To stop JAWS doing this, press Insert + V and go to Language Detect Change which is under Reading Options. On my PC I can press L three times and I'm there. If it's on, press SpaceBar to turn it off. If your documents aren't supposed to be in French, you might want to change a setting in Word so that they are all English. Select a part of all of a document, open the Tools menu, Language submenu and choose Set Language. You'll be in a long list of languages. If nothing is selected, that means more than one language is specified within the text in your selection; if a language is selected that means all the text in your selection is in that language. Choose the language of your choice - and be aware there are lots of options within English!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Completing Dates in an Excel Range
David, The feature is called AutoFill; here's how to do it with the keyboard. Assuming you have a date in cell A1 and want to enter consecutive dates into A2 to A50. Select cells A1 to A50. A quick way to do this is to press F5, type the range A1:A50 and press Enter. Open the edit menu and choose the Fill submenu, and from this choose Series (Alt + E, I, S). This opens a dialogue box with a number of controls which allow you to specify the type of series you wish. For this example I want the series to be based on what is in cell A1 so select the AutoFill option (Tab to the Type Control + and select the AutoFill radio button, or use the shortcut Alt + F). Press Enter to close the dialogue box. The series will be completed; use UpArrow to deselect and then DownArrow to check what has appeared. Cell A50 should contain 19-Feb-01. AutoFill is set to work with days of the week, months of the year, and dates. It can also work with any numbers, but for these you will need to fill in two cells, for instance A1 and A2, then select them both and then press F5 to select the range you want the series to be put into, for instance A1 to A50. This is necessary because otherwise Excel won't know how to increase your sequence of numbers. It is possible to add your own lists of words that will AutoFill. To create such a list, open the Tools menu and choose Options. Move to the Custom Lists page of the dialogue and Tab to the List Entries edit box. Type in your list, with each entry on a new line, and then Tab to and press the Add button. If someone sends you a spreadsheet with a list typed into a number of consecutive cells, one entry per cell, then you can add create a list from these cells rather then typing it in. Note the first and last cell of the list. Open the Tools menu, choose Options and move to the Custom Lists page. Tab to the Import list from cells edit box and type the cell range into it, then Tab to and press the Import button to create your list. The list entries will appear in the List Entries area above.

This feature provides the automatic insertion of a consecutive list of data. Basically Excel will look at the data in 2 cells and you can then have it automatically insert the rest. So for example you could put in 2 dates like October 1 and October 2 in 2 cells. Highlight these cells and then place your mouse cursor at the bottom right corner of the second cell. The mouse pointer would change shape and you could then drag across as many cells as you want and Excel would fill in October 3 , October 4 and so on automatically for you. This would work for any kind of data - numbers, time and even days of the week like Monday Tuesday etc. . Basically Excel would look at the relationship between the 2 cells you select and try to replicate this across a range. This is a very useful and time saving feature However I can find no equivalent keyboard sequence which could be used with Jaws to replicate this mouse operation.

DownArrow to Border Lines and I think it will be checked. Uncheck it and your problem will go away. With the Border Lines checkbox checked, Word will substitute borders beneath the preceding paragraph when you type certain sequences of characters in a paragraph of their own and then press Enter. Three or more asterisks are changed to a dotted bottom border; to check this, after typing three asterisks and then pressing Enter, press UpArrow to get back to the paragraph and press Alt + Shift + B to get JAWS to describe the borders.

I selected the text and verified that it was selected; but it would not copy to the clipboard. (Instead, when i pasted the information from the clipboard - I'm referring to the ordinary Windows clipboard - the previous selection I had copied was pasted, not the present one that should have been. I repeated this whole exercise three or four times, with the same negative result in each case. I then restarted the computer, with the hope that the clipboard would be cleared and that the desired content - a piece of text - would be copied, and using JAWS9 latest. Alas, that did not work either.) I then decided to unload JAWS, and loaded JAWS8 instead. At first, the copy to clipboard would not take. The second time, it did, and i was then able to paste the desired text in. I would like users of JAWS9.0.2169 to try copying text from a pdf to the clipboard, and then paste into another editable document. (Windows XP, Adobe Reader 8.x.)

Re: [JAWS-Users] Selecting A Table in Word
The Word keystroke for selecting the current table is Alt + NumPad 5. This conflicts with the JAWS keystroke to read the current sentence, so you'll need to use the JAWS bypass key of Insert + 3 first.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws saying super-script in word and sometimes emails
Joanne, First way to stop this is to stop Word putting the superscripts in in the first place. Go to the Tools menu and choose AutoCorrect. On the AutoFormat page, uncheck the ordinals (1st) with superscript checkbox. Once they are in the document, you can either stop JAWS telling you about them or you can change the formatting in Word so that they don't appear. The Word route is easier, but you'll need to do it for each document. In JAWS, go to the Configuration Manager with Insert + 6, open the Set Options menu and choose Speech and Sounds manager. Tab to the Edit Current Scheme button and press it. Move to the Attributes page with Control + Tab, then DownArrow to Subscript, Tab once and DownArrow to Ignore. Shift + Tab back into the list of attributes, DownArrow to Superscript, then Tab once and DownArrow to Ignore again. Press Enter, then Tab to the Save Current Scheme and press it, then Tab to the OK button and press it. Then close the Configuration Manager. In Word, check whether the first character of the document is superscript. Assuming it isn't, select the entire document with Control + A, then Control + D to go into the Font dialogue and press Alt + P twice. Then press Enter to close the dialogue and unselect the text. If the first character of the document is superscript, then do the same but only press Alt + P once.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Unbreaking Space Keystroke
Mike, This is cut from the wikipedia entry for non-breaking space, which refers to it as NBSP. Explanation The difference between an NBSP and a normal space is that, when a string including the NBSP comes at the end of the line, and is too long to fit, it will move the whole string to the next line (including the strings that the NBSP connects to). This is analogous to how normal strings wrap. For example, the string ambidextrously will never be broken, and neither will the string am bi dextrous ly when the spaces are nonbreaking. Use as non-collapsing whitespace A second common application of the NBSP characters is in plain text file formats for word processing applications (e.g., SGML, HTML, TeX, LaTeX) that treat sequences of white-space characters (such as space, newline, tabulator, form feed, etc.) exactly as if they were a single character. Such collapsing of whitespace allows the author of the plain text file to neatly arrange the text in this form (e.g., by line breaks and indentation), without affecting the typeset result of the line-breaking algorithm. The no-break space character is not merged with any other neighboring whitespace characters in such applications, and can therefore be used by an author to explicitly insert additional visible space in the formatted text. Keyboard entry methods None of the existing national or international standards on keyboard layouts currently define an input method for the NBSP character. Therefore, the authors of keyboard drivers or application programs (e.g., word processors) had to invent their own keyboard shortcuts. For example: CTRL+SHIFT+SPACE: Microsoft Word CTRL+SPACE: WordPerfect, OpenOffice.org CTRL+K N S: vim (see vim digraphs) OPTION+SPACE: Mac OS ALT+0160: Microsoft Windows Insert | Symbol dialog box (Latin-1 subset, after ~): many office applications Clear now?!

Re: [JAWS-Users] help with setting tabs in microsoft word
Candy, You're already getting the indent after the initials for the first line of the paragraph. For all the other lines, you want what is called a hanging indent. You can do that to a single paragraph by moving the cursor into it and pressing Control + T. You don't have to select anything, just be in the paragraph. To do it to more than one paragraph, select them and press Control + T. If you haven't typed the interview in yet, in an empty document do a select all with Control + A, then Control + T and then use an arrow key to unselect; now every paragraph you type will automatically have the hanging indent. Something to be aware of is that each time you press Control + T, the hanging indent moves to the next tab stop. And to reverse the Control + T action, press Control + Shift + T.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Word problem
Vicki, You don't say what steps you took to get JAWS to give capitalisation information, or give examples of when it doesn't work. Here's what I did in my configuration manager. I went into the Speech and Sounds manager and edited the current scheme. On the Misc page I set both the Caps and the All Caps to speak item and for each of them I tabbed to the Text edit area and typed in the relevant words I wanted spoken. I don't think it's necessary for the Caps item, but I did it anyway. I then saved the scheme. Then I went into Text Processing and changed the Indicate Capitalisation setting to read by line, word, char, spell. Lastly, I went to the Say All Options and checked indicate caps. Once I had saved the changes and returned to Word, it seems to work; I'm told about capitals whatever method I use to read text. Have you made the same changes? If so, can you give an example of when JAWS doesn't give the capitalisation information?

Re: [JAWS-Users] outlook XP auto complete
Larry, A quick search on Google gives the impression that you can delete a single nickname entry by pressing delete when it appears in the autocomplete list as you're typing the address, and you can delete the whole autocomplete history by using Windows Explorer to delete a file with your profile name and the filetype NK2; it'll be buried somewhere in your Documents and Settings folder. But Microsoft don't provide a way to directly edit an NK2 file. There are a number of third party editors available, and if you google edit NK2 you'll get some further information.

Re: [JAWS-Users] MS word 2003 and spell check
Leonard, If your focus is on a misspelled word, you can use either Shift + F10 or Alt + F7 to check just that word. Shift + F10 is the keyboard equivalent of a right mouse click, and has been around for a long time. Newer keyboards have the Applications key so that you don't have to remember Shift + F10 except in some situations like yours! Alt + F7 is a little different. It brings up the same menu, but if you press Escape to leave this menu the whole word will be selected. That's not too much or a problem, as you can just press RightArrow to de-select it and move to the end of it. Also note that if you press Alt + F7 when your focus is not on a misspelled word, focus will jump to the nearest misspelled word and give you the menu. I remember getting very confused because sometimes it jumped forward, sometimes backward, and I could never pin down exactly what made it go in one direction or the other! But I have know people to spell check the whole of a document with this keystroke because they just couldn't get on with the F7 dialogue.

Re: [JAWS-Users] reading comments in Word XP
Cher, I don't have Word XP so I can't tell you much about that. In Word 2003, if I get the list of comments up and press Enter on one, my focus goes to the start of a word. The comment signifier follows that word, preceding any punctuation. Like you, I can't get the PC cursor directly onto that comment signifier, but at any point in the word preceding the comment signifier, I can press Applications key and get a menu which includes Edit Comment and Delete Comment. If I choose Edit Comment, my focus jumps to the comment pane at the bottom of the screen; when I've finished editing it I can either press F6 to move to the document, leaving the comment pane on screen, or I can press Alt + Shift + C to close the comment pane and move to the document. Is that any use to you?

[JAWS-Users] Inputting international characters in Word
In Word you can enter umlauted characters by typing Control + Shift + semicolon, then the letter to be umlauted. The Control + Shift + semicolon action times out after about 5 seconds, so you need to press the letter to be umlauted within that time. I've noticed that if JAWS is running and I try this, the Control + Shift + semicolon action times out much quicker. I have JAWS set to the defaults, so when I press Control + Shift + semicolon JAWS starts to echo the keystroke and I have to press the letter before it finishes for the umlaut to appear. There seems to be no difference between Windows 98, Word 97 and JAWS 5.1, and Windows XP, Word 2003 and JAWS 9. With JAWS version 4.51 and earlier, this speeding up of the timeout doesn't happen. Does anyone know why this should happen, or if this behaviour can be altered? I have a client who is very slow on the keyboard and just can't get to the letter quickly enough to get the accented character. I have investigated two other possibilities: umlauts don't appear in the Insert + 4 list of characters, and my client isn't going to be able to remember all the ANSI numbers to input. Other than creating macros for each character, I can't think of any alternatives.

I've noticed that if JAWS is running and I try this, the Control + Shift + semicolon action times out much quicker. I have JAWS set to the defaults, so when I press Control + Shift + semicolon JAWS starts to echo the keystroke and I have to press the letter before it finishes for the umlaut to appear. There seems to be no difference between Windows 98, Word 97 and JAWS 5.1, and Windows XP, Word 2003 and JAWS 9. With JAWS version 4.51 and earlier, this speeding up of the timeout doesn't happen. Does anyone know why this should happen, or if this behaviour can be altered? I have a client who is very slow on the keyboard and just can't get to the letter quickly enough to get the accented character. I have investigated two other possibilities: umlauts don't appear in the Insert + 4 list of characters, and my client isn't going to be able to remember all the ANSI numbers to input. Other than creating macros for each character, I can't think of any alternatives. Thanks
Re: [JAWS-Users] battery help with JAWS 9
Vicki, I don't think anything has changed between JAWS 8 and 9 - the keystroke is still CapsLock + Shift + B - so unless something has changed on the laptop, it should work the same. You'll need to have the laptop keyboard layout selected in the Options dialogue before the keystroke will work.

[JAWS-Users] JAWS 9 with Focus 70 problem
I have a client using Word 2000 and she has noticed that the spacing on the Braille display does not reflect what is on the screen when she types in; she puts a single space between each word in the document and on the display sometimes this takes up a single cell, sometimes 5 cells and sometimes 13 or 14 cells. When she reviews the text the spacing is okay. She is using the default Braille settings. One option I can think of is to update her to Word 2003, but I wondered if anyone else with JAWS 9 and a Focus has this issue and if so, with which version of Word? Or if anyone using JAWS 9, a Focus and Word is having no such problem; again the Word version would be useful to know.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Google Books
David, I haven't read the article, but I have found the link. I did a search in Google Books for Milton, then chose Paradise Lost: A poem in twelve books from the search results.

I didn't have to go to full screen mode to get the link. When I pressed the link, another page loaded and I pressed N twice to get to graphic page chrome; the OCR version of the page appeared between this and another graphic page chrome which signified the end of that page.

Re: [JAWS-Users] eloq.sbl What is it?
Dale, Correct. Eloq.sbl isn't opened in a manager, you can use Notepad. I think it started with JAWS 5, but help on it doesn't appear until version 6 (look under Using JAWS, Voice settings, for a topic called Adding Speech for special symbols). Your post reminded me that Freedom Scientific have a bulletin on this topic which allows you to download a much expanded eloq.sbl with entries for most Unicode symbols. Here is a link to the bulletin: http://www.freedomscientific.com/fs_support/BulletinView.cfm?QC=1066 Each synthesiser has its own sbl file, but if you use anything other than eloquence, it's a bit more tricky in that additions will need to be done manually.

Chris, It's under virtual cursor options when you open the Adjust JAWS Verbosity dialogue while in Internet Explorer. Mark, You say you'd like to find this setting in the configuration manager, but I don't think it's there. Some of the settings in the Adjust JAWS Verbosity dialogue are temporary and some of them are permanent, and this appears to be one that's permanent, so maybe Freedom Scientific thought it was unnecessary to put it in the configuration manager too.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Reading the day of the week
David, Here are three suggestions: 1. Reading the day is upset by having the TaskPad on the screen, so make sure it is turned off - it's in the View menu. 2. On some PCs, the following change to a Windows setting allows JAWS to read the day. Open the Start Menu, go into the Settings submenu and choose Control Panel. Press R to jump to Regional and Language Options, and press Enter to open a dialogue. Tab to a Standard and formats Customize button and press Enter to open a further dialogue box. Control + Tab to the Date page, and then Tab to the Long date format and change it to: , dd Both the number of characters and their case are important in the format, so make sure it's right! Once you have typed this in, you can Tab to the OK button and press it, then Tab to another OK button and press it, and then close the Control Panel. You might need to stop and start Outlook before the change takes effect. Now when you move from day to day with LeftArrow and RightArrow, JAWS should give you the day name as well as the date. Beware that this change can cause JAWS' behaviour in reading out day and date information to deteriorate even further, so you may have to undo the setting change to get it back. 3. Remember that when you press Control + G, it gives the first three letters of the day along with the date of the current day. So for your example, you could go to the calendar, press Control + G and type in 11/2/08 Enter to jump to the day you're interested in, then press Control + G again to get the day information and press Escape to get rid of the dialogue once you have it.

So for example I received an email today requesting my availability on 11th February 2008. At present the only way to get Outlook to tell me what day this is to create an actual appointment on that date whereupon I discover this is a Monday. This is a bit long winded and time consuming if you are trying to find a particular day in a month. I raised this problem on another list last year but nobody could come up with a solution. As far as I can see FS have still not resolved this problem in Jaws 9 though if they have this would definitely make me buy it. It occurs to me that a possible solution would be to create a simple Excel spreadsheet where the *weekday* function should theoretically return the day for any given date. My attempts to do this have failed spectacularly though and the Excel help seem unnecessarily obscure on this function. Are there any Excel wizards out there who can do this? What I was trying to do was nominate a cell like a1 to type in a date and use weekday to reference to that cell and give me the day of the week.

Jason, I'm not aware of a way of doing this within Word. An alternative might be to use My Computer or Windows Explorer to navigate to your first file and press Enter to open it into Word. When you've finished with it, return to My Computer/Windows Explorer and your focus will still be on the file you last pressed Enter on. Would that work for you? Steve -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of jason smith Sent: 01 November 2007 05:57 To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] how to return to your last spot in a list of documentsin MS word Hi list, I have something I have wondered for a while. I have a lot of word documents in my list of word documents in word 2003. Due to my studies, I have a lot with the same prefix i.e a subject/unit code number. Sometimes I may not remember what is in each document. I do obviously give each a descriptive title. However, if I am looking for a particular piece of info, I may not remember exactly which document it is in. I therefore, may need to open each file in turn so as to check if that is the file I want. If it isn't, I obviously have to go back to my list of documents and choose another document. The problem is, each time you do a control O and shift tab back to your list of documents, you are put back at the top of the list. Is there a way of returning back to the last file you opened? That would save a lot of trouble having to find where I last was. I do use first letter navigation. However, like I said, I have a lot of files beginning with the same name e.g my unit code.

Re: [JAWS-Users] OmniPage Pro 16
Al, I've heard there is a bug in OmniPage (version 16) which prevents Acquire Text working from Word, and I wonder if this is the cause of your biggest complaint. There is a patch for the bug on the Nuance website at http://knowledgebase.nuance.com/view.asp?tnID=7085sQuery=direct%20OCR Apparently the problem goes away once this patch has been installed.

I did not think there was any interest because in my previous two posts about the program before I purchased and returned it no one responded to my posts. If discussions are helpful to the group here then by all means I think it should stay too. Here are my initial reactions to the updated version (16): Some of the install screens, especially the custom option, are tough but doable (have to use the JAWS cursor some) All of the topics under the help pull down (with exception of the about choice will not read with any of the cursors . They must be graphics base or something. My biggest complaint is in previous versions once a document was scanned the OCR proofreading screen came up. You could then simply hit escape or use it to correct issues. Once this was done the scanned document was on the screen and JAWS would read it just like a Word document with all standard reading keys. In version 16 this does not work You either have to use the JAWS cursor and then hear things you don't want or go the view menu and play with settings such as true page view, plain text, etc. JAWS with then read the document okay but the next scan or anything you have to mess around with settings to get it to read. This would not be bad if you only occasionally scanned something but if you do a lot of scanning and are in a hurry to hear something its a pain. On the plus side it does load quicker and scans much faster. I sent the product back for a refund and reinstalled my version 15 which I have no problem with and works fine.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Using MS Word Thesaurus with Office 2003
Lennie, There are a number of Word 2003 features which have been moved to the task pane, and you might find it worthwhile taking the time to learn the new method, but it is possible to stick with the old one if you prefer. Microsoft have left the old dialogue there, but have reassigned the keystroke and menu item to point to the new and - according to Microsoft's way of thinking - improved thesaurus. All you need to do is find the old dialogue and reassign the keystroke back to it. To do this, open the Tools menu and choose Customize. Tab to the Keyboard button and press it. In the list of categories, press A until you're on All Commands. Then Tab into a list of commands. You're looking for one called ToolsThesaurus. This is a long list but if you type the first six letters, with no spaces, quickly enough it should bring you to it. ToolsThesaurus is the old dialogue; if you DownArrow from it you'll be on ToolsThesaurusRR, which is the new-style task pane version, and it's to this second item that the Shift + F7 keystroke is assigned in Word 2003. To reassign it to ToolsThesaurus, put focus on that item and Tab twice into an edit called Press new shortcut key. Press Shift + F7 and then Enter twice, once to complete the assignment and again to close the dialogue box. Note that you can assign another keystroke to the feature if you prefer, but be careful not to assign one that is already used within Word unless you are positive you won't need it. When you press the keystroke, Word puts some static text on the dialogue to tell you whether it is currently in use, but you'll need to need to use the JAWS cursor to read this information, which appears under the edit where you pressed the keystroke.

Re: [JAWS-Users] how do you fast forward and rewind in windowsmedia player
Jason, Have a look at the Play menu and you'll find the keystrokes you need, plus some more. In addition to those mentioned by Jeffrey, fast forward is Control + Shift + F and rewind is Control + Shift + B. I think they are only available if the author of the track has built the functionality in, as quite often they are not available. When they are available, I find I can press Control + Shift + F and it starts jumping forward, then press Control + P to pause and then Control + P again to start at normal speed from the new place. There is a play speed submenu that is only available when something is playing, but I find it very handy; Control + Shift + G is like speeding up a tape and Control + Shift + N puts it back to normal speed. And Control + Shift + S slows it down.

This will avoid restarting at the beginning of the file every time after you've used the control+s to stop. If the podcast isn't separated into tracks, tab around until you hear a slider control that reads a percent. If you're focused on that, right arrow will jump you ahead, and left back. Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to adjust the increment for the jump, so you can move rather large distances when often you'd rather go back just a little bit.

If I have already listened to the podcast before, I may want to skip forward to the secttion I want. Using the hotkey of alt F doesn't seem to do anything. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Being able to pause, fast forward and rewind, will be very handy when trying to follow David's very helpfull tutorials. At moment, I often use a hand recorder to do the job.

Mark, I think wrap to window only works in Normal and Outline view. Print layout view shows your document as it will print, so the only way you can change it is to change things like the paper size, orientation, margins and so on.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Using Office 2003 with Jaws - wrap to screen
Annette, The wrap the window function reformats a document so that the text fits into the screen window. If you have what used to be the JAWS recommendations of maximised Normal view at 75% zoom, then a document only uses about half the screen width. If it consists of long paragraphs, turning on wrap to window (Tools menu, Options, View page and it's near the bottom) could make each line take twice as much information, and fewer keystrokes are then needed to read it line by line.

Re: [JAWS-Users] More on Advanced Find in OE JFW 7.1
Margaret, When you get to what JAWS reports is the Received after: list box, you are actually on a control that contains a checkbox, today's date and a date picker. I don't know a way of using the date picker with the keyboard. If you want to specify dates as part of your search criteria, press SpaceBar to check the checkbox and then RightArrow to the date. I'm set to European dates which are expressed as date, month, year; if you're set to US style dates you may get month, date, year. For each of them you can effect changes with UpArrow, DownArrow or by typing a new number. Does that work for you?

I uninstalled this version since I could have sworn I made changes and saved them multiple times and they didn't take. and had hoped that a new installation might get rid of the excess received after, but it didn't. Does anyone have any ideas how I can get this version not to say the received after when the find message dialogue comes up? I don't want to get rid of it entirely.

[JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Excel 2000
If I try to delete a cell by going to the Edit menu and choosing Delete, the resulting dialogue is misread in two ways: 1. The control with focus as the dialogue opens isn't read. 2. Using arrow keys to move around the control, which is a set of four radio buttons, causes JAWS to misreport that each one moved to is unselected, when the very action of moving to the radio button selects it. I've had this with two flavours of version 8 - 1163 and 2173 - on different PCs. JAWS version 6.2 and 7 work okay on the same dialogue, and JAWS 8 works okay in Excel 2003, so it seems to be very specific to JAWS and Excel versions. Is anyone else getting this problem?

For those interested, the following link takes you to a page which gives a later version of the beta which came out on 11th July. http://www.safer-networking.org/en/paragraphs/spybotsdbeta_intro.html Steve -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Patricia Ferrin Sent: 14 July 2007 02:52 To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] new version of spy bot available I just placed spy bot 1.5 June 2007 up on the programs page. Some time early next week I'll update the script files that go with it, but until then the old scripts will get you through the weekend just fine.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Getting JAWS to announce Column and row headers in aWord table
Annette, Yes it is. Put your focus in the first cell in the table (Alt + Control + Home while in the table) and then press Insert + V to open the Adjust JAWS dialogue. Press S until JAWS reports Set column titles row - not defined for table 1 and press SpaceBar to change it to row 1 (because that's where the cursor was when the dialogue was opened). DownArrow to set row titles column - not defined for table 1 and press SpaceBar to set that one. Then press Enter to close the dialogue and JAWS should say document settings saved. This means that JAWS will remember the titles for this table of this document the next time it is opened. If there are other tables in the same document, the titles will need to be set up for each one.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Getting JAWS to announce Column androwheadersinaWord table
There are other keystrokes that can be used to read titles in addition to the way I mentioned, but the original question was about getting the titles read out as you move around with Alt + Control + arrow keys. Alt + Shift + C and Alt + Shift + R will reread the column or row title, but I think these need to be set up in the way I indicated first - I could be wrong there. And I still like Alt + 1 to read the top cell in the current column, and Alt + 7 for the leftmost cell in the current row.
