Hi Steve,
I have been playing around with Word and labels with no success. One
thing I did notice is that WE would not speak when I tried to paste text
into the box. I put an address in WordPad and copied it to the
clipboard and tried to paste it into the box. It would not speeak. The
box also said nothing when trying to navigate it. It would seem to me
that if the text did not paste, the box should have said blank as I
moved around in it. I think I will try contacting Microsoft to let them
see if they can help me. I will let you know what they say.

Carol,
I wonder if this is part of the old Microsoft bug that affected envelope
addressing for years. That was fixed in Word 2016, though. Would you give
exact steps to get where you are getting? I'd like to figure out if this is
a Microsoft bug.
As a work-around, you might be able to type the address in a document and
then select it. Microsoft might populate the "to" field with the selected
address, although you might not be able to determine that until you print
the label if this is left over from the old bug. This was the case with the
envelope addressing dialog. You probably would not need to copy and paste,
it happens automatically if this works similarly. Don't get me wrong, you
shouldn't have to do it this way, it should work and we need to figure out
why it isn't working, whether it is Window-Eyes or a Microsoft bug.
Best regards,
Steve Jacobson

Hello,
I need to print a label. I can go to the settings and choose my wanted
label. I can choose which label prints and where it is on the page.
The problem is that I can not get WE to read the information in the to
label box. It simply does not speak and the box does not show up with
the mouse keys. The mouse keys report everything else I need except for
the address. Are there settings I need to change in Window-Eyes for
Word 2016? Thanks.
Carol
