However if you have at least one sheet with the default name, sheet 1, the insert plus shift plus s works as expected. As an example, I have a workbook I created with three sheets. the sheets are named binomial, geometric, and poisson. If I hit the insert plus shift plus s it just brings up the system menu. However, if I add a sheet to it and then use the command, it works just fine. I am using JAWS13 and Excel 2010. Thanks, Greg W.

[JAWS-Users] Don't Install Rapport
Bank of America has just come out with a new program called Rapport that is supposed to supplement antivirus software in protecting online communications. I am running XP, IE 8, and Jaws 12, latest update. I installed Rapport, and it protected me by making Internet Explorer 8.0 totally unusable. No links on any page I went to. I tried using the Rapport console to shut down; no luck. Unable to shut it down, and unable to uninstall it from the control panel. When I tried uninstalling, a web page came up which I browsed with the Jaws cursor. I clicked on Chat with a representative, and it said sorry, nobody is available. I ended up having to do a system restore to get rid of it. I'll be curious to know if others have success with this program. Yes, I've already sent a message to Bank of America.

Hi Flor, Thanks for helping me try to work through this. I just tried typing a long string of text without ever hitting the enter key.

If you have the full forty cells filled in one line, then isn't it likely that there will be a single space left in cell one of the next braille line to mark the word separation, which might be important if you have the display refreshing automatically? (I can't speak to perky duck, not having it.) the paragraph setting in Outlook and word may be set to two line-spaces rather than just one. if reading a print line in Notepad of more than 40 characters that wraps, I believe the remainder of the print line will start over on cell one of the next braille (as it will happen, shorter) line. the braille line beginning in cell two or three may be quite correct for beginning a new paragraph in braille. I do have Duxbury braille Translator, and I know that there are settings available there to enable beginning a parargraph on cell one. - Original Message - From: Jerry Berrier jerry.berr...@comcast.net To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Sunday, September 19, 2010 12:51 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Braille display Issue in Notepad and Perky Duck Hi, I think the margins are only for printing.

It crashed when I tried to change firewall settings, and, while typing this message I stopped and went to the AVG interface, brought up the components menu, arrowed down to E-mail scanner, opened it successfully, then changed nothing but went to Save Settings and hit the spacebar.

I was told to download a fresh copy of the JAWS 9.0.2169 file directly from the website; the man I talked to said that my update probably did not complete propperly.

The newest version of the Word Web dictionary even has the ability to reside in your system tray for easy access, and allows for a user defined hotkey to bring it up automatically. It will even work in conjunction with other word processors for quick and easy access. The great thing is that if you highlight a word, then use the hotkey, which is control+alt+W, which is the default for accessing the dictionary, the word will automatically appear in the edit field to look up the word. There are a few tabs when the word is defined, such as a synonyms tab, along with an antonyms tab/section in case you want to use the thesaurus part of the program The other great thing about this program is the fact that it's free. Can't argue with that price. Smile.

I have seen messages about AVG from time to time on this list. I have used Norton since 2003, and am now on Norton 360. I have been told by a number of people that Norton slows down a PC and is not necessarily the best, although it is the one most computer shops in this country seem to push. I have looked at AVG's site, and see that there is a free version and one for which you have to pay. The free version seems to do one thing at a time, whereas the paid version seems to include anti virus, anti spyware, anti spam and a firewall. What I would like to know is whether the free version is adequate, or is the paid version the one to go for. It is reasonably priced, so that is not a problem. I have never used the program before, and I would appreciate knowing how well it works with JAWS. The articles on the Tips and Tricks page seem to deal with just the anti spyware aspect, or how to schedule a scan. I would be grateful for any other information. Thanks.

This is done mostly to get bands out there using this rather new marketing ploy, and to offer a band or musician the ability to get noticed and offer a platform where agents or music professionals can sample new material for sign-ups. Having said that, there are services that one can pay for music downloads, such as napster and ITunes, where people pay for the music they download. I understand that this may not be exactly what that person was looking for, but there are legitimate outfits out there that actually encourage the downloading of music available from their sites. Just thought people would like to know that.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Norton Ghost
I use ghost 12.0 with JAWS, and it works very well. It's a great program and relatively accessible. I have not had to seek sighted assistance with it for anything. However, I have not yet done a restore. I think that will require sighted help. I can create and schedule backups, look at and restore individual files or folders from a backup. I also created a recovery disk without help, and that went fine. I'm not sure about some of its more advanced features, but the basics work fine with JAWS. Sorry I can't say the same for other Symantec products.

An attenuator cord can look just like a regular patch cord, but it has a component in it that decreases the level of the signal that is transmitted through it.
