[JAWS-Users] Re: Skipping headers in Outlook Express
Denny, I also get a couple of the Kim Kommando mailings such as her Tip of the day and I'm able to do the letter h and down arrow twice to get right to the tip. I tried the letter p you suggested and the h is fewer keystrokes for me. Margaret Denny Huff wrote: Yes, that will jump past the headers, but I also use the letter p to bypass a lot of stuff I don't want to read in some email messages. For example, I get the Kim Kommando tip of the day and she has a lot of ads before she gets to the tip, so I keep typing the letter p until I get to that part of the newsletter. Just a suggestion for some of your email messages.

[JAWS-Users] DEC--Talk Access 32 JFW 7.0
Hi All, I don't like Eloquence and have been using the GW Micro version of DEC-Talk Access 32 with JAWS since JFW 3.x and the last couple of days, I haven't been able to use the DEC-Talk at all with JAWS 7.0 and can't even switch synths with Control-Insert-S. My tech came to work on some other things at the beginning of the month and I had him work on getting the DEC-Talk to come up talking with JFW 7.0. It worked for a couple of days and then I had the same problem I'm having now and he semmed to get it working again although it wasn't perfect. I'd get the infamous your copy of DEC-Talk Access 32 is not authorized to run on this computer message about other time, but I could turn off the computer and it might take a couple of repeats, but it would eventually work. I turned off the machine on Wednesday when I left the house and I've gotten the error message every time I boot up and can't switch synths. At this point, I would happily let Eloquence load and manually switch synths to the DEC-Talk. My tech put zjaws in the startup submenu. I don't know if the z is a typo on his part or if he did something special and added the z to distinguish it somehow. I have DEC-Talk Access 32 instead of Via Voice with OpenBook and when I loaded OB this morning to read my mail, I got an error message about a server problem and Dec-Talk access 32, so now I can't even read my mail. It's XP Home with SP2 and the DEC--Talk access 32 is 4.x. I think it's 4.53. I'm running JAWS in the sys tray. Any help in getting things back to normal would be greatly appreciated.

[JAWS-Users] Re: Progress Bar Announcements in J 7.0 OE
I thought about trying Maria's suggestion, but now it seems to be working as it should. We'll see. After I posted, I had a thought on why JAWS might be saying 100% twice. Control-M is for both send and receive messages, so maybe one 100% is for sending and the second 100% is for receiving. I usually send messages immediately, so hadn't thought of the sending part. JFW was also saying the percentages with IE, so I'll have to see if that seems to straighten out on its own. I'd already done a cold boot so it may be another one for the shrug column.

[JAWS-Users] Silencing Deleted in OE-JFW 7.0 Solved
I followed Rick's example and commented out the lines and it seems to have worked with no ill effects so far. Margaret Ricque wrote: Hi Margaret, I found the same scripts in version 7, and commented out both lines, and it does work.

I found an old post on another list from Debbie in which she gave instructions for doing it in 7.1, but her instructions don't seem to match in 7.0: Don't perform these steps unless you are comfortable making script changes. In OE, press insert 0 (on the number row) to open the OE scripts file. You need to comment out two lines in the scripts. Press control L (or go to the script menu, script list) and press D and find the script DeleteMessage and enter. Arrow down in the script to the line that says the following and put a semicolon in front of it like this: ;SayFormattedMessage (ot_status, msg_DeleteMessage_L, msg_DeleteMessage_S) Now press control L again and this time press J and then find the script JAWSDelete and enter. You will find the same line as above in that script also. Put a semicolon in front of the line in this script too. Then press control S to compile, alt f4 to leave script manager. I may need more caffeine but the line in the jaws delete script does not seem to be the same as the delete message script. I've looked at the jaws-users home page under tips and tricks and also the scripts link and didn't seem anything related to the script. The Helpful Hint on the JFWlite page seems to be for earlier versions of JAWS. Are the instructions for silencing the pesky thing the same for 7.0 as for 7.1 or am I not seeing straight?

The download process is somewhat different than previous versions, as it is actually a download manager for Adobe, instead of a stand-alone executeable for the reader.

[JAWS-Users] Re: is there a jaws-friendly money program?
Hi All, I apologize to the group-it seems that the URL I gave earlier for the manual for Money Talks doesn't work if you don't already have the program. Hopefully, this one will do the trick: http://www.aph.org/tech/mt_info.htm I should probably add that I haven't tried using the check printing feature yet. I wish Money Talks had a calculator and calendar which I believe Talking Check Book does. It's been a while since I tried it and my memory may be wrong. I'll look around some more if this URL doesn't work for people. Margaret Earlier I wrote: Marilyn, Money Talks will still work if you don't do your banking online and you don't have to download any files. You can reconcile using paper statements, using the bank's telephone service (call their number, punch in your PIN and get your balance and the numbers of checks that have cleared etc.), download a file from your online account, or a combination of the above. There's a copy of the manual at: C:\Program Files\aph\Money Talks\mt_doc.htm There's a Beta version of Money Talks and I believe the latest changes aren't reflected in the document on that page.
