i don't have this problem with win 7 and notepad.
it might be windows specific because the win 8 version uses ribbon menus.
have you checked to see that the notepad set file is up to date?
try maximizing the notepad window. it is not moxamized when you load it.
could you be useing a larger font size? this might be the problem.
if you have ever changed the font size note pad will remember this size and
use it as the default when you load it.

Subject: Trying to make Notepad say the first and last characters on a
line,using the Home and End keys
This may well be the reason I've always hated Notepad, and why I always try
to make far more use of MS Word. I have no trouble in wird setting up the
described responses with the Home and End cursoring keys. In word, the
Cursoring key adjustments are set up so that when I press the home key on
any line in the document, I hear the first letter on that line, and when I
press the End key, I likewise hear the last character of the current line.
In Notepad, however, the Home key works in that same manner, but pressing
the End key yields no sound at all, and that's regardless of the selected
"First Action" setting, which is the #3 of the 20 or so possible selections,
and which matches the setting in Word. The Second Action" response is also
set to "Undefined". The cursoring key settings are all "global".
Even if I try setting the first action setting for the End key to "say
line", I still hear nothing. Any good ideas out there about what I might
have done? I'd like to make better use of Notepad, because Word is so rich
in disruptable settings that can force you to spend hours tracking down
problems with formatting.
