Use the applications key and choose open link Roy Sent from my iPhone On Mar 14, 2011, at 6:08 AM, Claire Ryan <claire.ryan24@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Dear All, I'm using JAWS V 11 and MS Office 2010. I was wondering if there is a way for JAWS to allow me to access links in a Word document? It's like the links have been embedded in the document. As I scan down blocks of text in a page, (using the arrow keys), JAWS alerts me that certain phrases have links attached by announcing "Link." Is there a way for me to click on each link and have the internet page open up in IE? I think that if I could look at the screen, I would place the mouse over the words that have a link attached and the URL for the page would appear and allow me to click on it. Needless to say, this does not help me here. Would anyone know of a way that JAWS works to bring up the link I want? I'd greatly appreciate any help. All the best, Claire. -- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/Scripting mailing list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.comJFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxTo unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.Archives located at: //www.freelists.org/archives/jfwAlternative archives located at: http://n2.nabble.com/JAWS-for-Windows-f2145279.htmlIf you have any concerns about the list, post received from the list, or the way the list is being run, do not post them to the list.
