Hi Jamal and all:
On a jaws list someone sent this message and I replied. I am unsure what
your script did but unsure if I misinformed him with my temp fix.
see below:
Hi all,
I installed the Homer scripts and the other scripts for msWord. I can't find
any instructions for how to use them, and the control f for find, and the
controld c for copy to clipboard do not work now. I use MsWord very
frequently, so I would really appreciate any help. If no one has used them,
would anyone know how to uninstall them?
Thank you very much.
GOD BLESS,
Hello,
One way to get script uninstalled is to delete the compiled file or binary
with extension .JSB.
You can keep source and other files on your PC.
To delete the binary file from word scripts:
open word
open script manager insert +F2, type s for script and enter
You should now be in user scripts for word.
control+o for open
tab to file type and select all and enter
You should have a list view of all script files for word
arrow down to JSB file which is extension for binary file
delete the JSB binary file from script manager
Now you will use the default scripts for word.
If you wish to recompile and recreate the binary file go into word source
file word.jss and save to recompile
