Re: Jaws 8 and ms word

How come the first thought is that what probably is a perfectly functional 
copy of Word is at fault? Every time I have any problem with Word, or 
Outlook Express, or whatever, it always turns out to be something Jaws is at 
fault for, which I might or might not be able to rectify on my own with the 
Jaws tools at hand. It just seems very, very unlikely that such a dependable 
war horse as a common version of Word (I use Word 2,000 myself) is the 
culprit, and needs to either be updated with some sort of patch, or even 
totally upgraded to a later version. Not usually the case.

I think I use 2003, if I update do I have to pay?

  I'm using JAWS 8.0.423 demo and Word 2003 and the period works as
  expected. Try downloading the latest updates to Word 2002 and see if
  that helps. Good luck.
