Hello Tom,
Thanks so much for your help. Now my Window-Eyes is reading the spaces as
spaces and not bullets. Actually I was mistaken. I didn't have the problem
in Wordpad.
Thanks again.

In Word Alt-Q for quick search.
Type "Options" and select it in the pulldown menu.
Arrow down to Display.
Then tab down to Spaces and uncheck it.
Tab to Ok and press spacebar.
I don't know where it is in Wordpad as I never use it.
Hth,
Tom

Hello All,
Please forgive me for changing the subject.
I have a little problem with Wordpad and MS Word 2016 which I hope you
can
help me with.
When I open a document in Word, my Window-Eyes reads all spaces as
bullets.
E.g., a line of text such as the following:
"Window-Eyes is a screen Reader for the blind"
would be read as:
"Window-Eyes bullet is bullet a bullet screen bullet Reader bullet for
bullet the bullet blind"
which I find very irritating. How do I stop this? It doesn't happen in
Notepad, only Wordpad and MS Word.
I am running Windows 8.1 with Window-Eyes 9.5.4.
Thanks in advance.

Not sure I understand your query correct. But If you have a Word
document, with a line of underlines, or maybe dots, where you want to
fill in say your name and address or the like. Yes, that is fully
possible.
1. place your cursor at the first of the characters you want replaced,
like the first underline character.
2. Hit the bypas (Insert-B), followed by only the Insert-key. WinEyes
will announce "Overwrite".
3. Type in your information. The underline characters will be
overwritten, or replaced, with the characters you type in.
. Again, hit the Insert-B, followed by only Insert, and WinEyes will
announce you have gone back to "insert" mode; which is the default mode.
Have filled in several forms in Word 2007, this way, and never heard any
complaint they would be anything but readable.
Hope I understood, and managed to answer, your query. If not, my
apologize.

Hello All:
Ok, I am constantly behind the times; guess I'll keep up in my next
life!
Running Office 2007 and using Window-Eyes 9.5.4: How do I invoke
TypeOver?
Second, when TypeOver is invoked, does it erase whatever is being typed
over? Example: There are a series of UNDERLINE characters; I would
like to
see these characters disappear and replaced with whatever I type in their
place. Is what I'm thinking of even a possibility?
Reason for enquiry? I'm editing some business-related legal forms
and want
to keep them as neat as possible. Much thanks for all help!
Sincerely,
Olusegun
Denver, Colorado
