Re: MICROSOFT WORD: HELP PERFORMING THREE TASKS
The WE App Central still is around. I just checked it out, and things seemed to work as ever. Only thing is that the developers will no longer be able to upload any further versions of their products. Meaning, you get what is there, and when it no longer works, you will have to contact the developer directly, and see if they happen to have a fix; or ask here on the list, hopig for someone to know the fix. :) But the Record Macro, that I mentioned, was developed by GW. Hence, it will NOT receive any updates, anyway. Likely it won't need any either, since it only depends on ingernal routines in WE, for performing its activity. Sure, it can perform activities in all other software, but it does not interfere with any of the software's basics. So, my guess is, it will be useful still. And the latest update was uploaded just a year ago, very shortly before WE went off the scene. Here is, for your convenience, the direct link for the app: https://www.gwmicro.com/App_Central/Apps/App_Details/?scriptid=1074 On 4/17/2018 7:46 AM, Olusegun -- Victory Associates LTD, Inc. wrote: > Hi David: > > Indeed, I did find some pointers online on how to create macros in Word. > Sadly, there were MORE PICTORIAL representations which then made it hard for > me to make sense of what I read. > > Isn't Window-Eyes Central app repository gone now?

RE: MICROSOFT WORD: HELP PERFORMING THREE TASKS
The following steps for creating a macro seem pretty straight forward. https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Create-or-run-a-macro-C6B99036-905C-49A6-818A-DFB98B7C3C9C On my version, the Macros button is the last button on the View ribbon. Selecting it presents three options including Record Macro, which opens a dialog box to name the macro and create the keyboard shortcut. As the instructions above indicate, you have to be sure you set the options to make the macro available in all new documents, which seems to be the default setting. Once you finish the dialog box, you'll go through the steps of typing out that information you want and centering it. I'd also be sure that at the end you use Control L to go back to left justified, if that is how you'll want to be positioned after the macros runs. When you are done, go back to the View ribbon and to the macro button and now select the Stop Recording option. I hastily went through this process a moment ago to see where the stop button appeared. I must not have done the right thing in assigning a keyboard shortcut, as the one hastily entered does not work, however, if I go back to the Macros button and select the first option, which is View macros, I can see my test macro there and clicking the "Run" button there does, in fact do what I recorded. So, give this a whirl and let me know if you still have issues, as I think your task is pretty straightforward for us to get done.

Re: MICROSOFT WORD: HELP PERFORMING THREE TASKS
Good morning. Sometimes memory does kick in. A number of years ago I played around with a program called autohotkey. It may very well be what you want. It's a free open source project which is still being worked on. Here's the download link for an installer and zip of the program. The dates are very recent. https://autohotkey.com/download/ Good luck.

Re: MICROSOFT WORD: HELP PERFORMING THREE TASKS
As for the stuff about getting a standard address and such, on all documents, I too would be interested in any feedback from people who have dealt with that before. Though, I do hold, what we here are looking for, would be How To Create A Template, and Later On Make Use Thereof? Have not done anything much research on the matter, but probably a search term like: How to create a template in MSWord followed by your version number, thrown into the search field of your favorite engine, might bring you a tiny step further. If you then found anything, feel free to share it with us all, and I guess the community can find a smooth way of working out the solution, by means of a screen reader. Don't know if this really was of any help, but thought to at least bring it to your attention. If you could find out the keystrokes, and you don't want to mess around with macros in Word - which I do have a feeling might be more or less accessible these days - you might want to give heed to an app, found at WE App Central. I think it's named something like Record Macro. Only tried it very shortly, numerous years ago, so won't know if it is recommendable for the task of yours. But it might be worth to keep in your pocket. :) On 4/16/2018 11:56 AM, Olusegun -- Victory Associates LTD, Inc. via Talk wrote: > Hello in Window-Eyes Land: > > Ok, I am stumped and need some help.

Re: MICROSOFT WORD: HELP PERFORMING THREE TASKS
I've never used it, so I don't have any practical help to offer. but there's a specific outline process in Word with styles and such. Here's a link to a Microsoft tutorial on it that I found with a quick search. https://support.office.com/en-us/article/create-an-outline-from-scratch-87e44e0d-ecba-4ec1-b1c9-b9fa46a230fc Hth, Tom On 4/16/2018 5:18 PM, Olusegun -- Victory Associates LTD, Inc. via Talk wrote: Sis Robin, looks like you're going to spank me, Indeed, I did turn off automatic numbering in Word.

RE: MICROSOFT WORD: HELP PERFORMING THREE TASKS
I don't have time to write everything out on the first two right now, but I can give you the following on the outlining aspect. As long as you did not disable automatic number in Word, you can get Word to create the outline for you. Here is write-up someone recently shared on the JASW or Window Eyes list recently. Type the first Roman number, then tab once to put in your information and press enter Most likely, Word will give you II after you press enter. Tab once, and Word will give you A. Fill in that line and press enter, and you will have B. Then C. and so on. When you want another Roman number, press shift+tab, and I believe Word will fill in the II. -Original Message- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+robin.van.lant=key@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of Olusegun -- Victory Associates LTD, Inc. via Talk Sent: Monday, April 16, 2018 3:57 AM To: cur...@calweb.com; 'Window-Eyes Discussion List' Cc: Olusegun -- Victory Associates LTD, Inc.
