Hi Robert,
could you send me such a presentation off list? I use Jaws version 7
and PowerPoint 2003 regularly and thus far have been unable to
duplicate your issues.

Up and down arrow is to review the information on a given slide, and

not move from one slide to another. However sometimes jaws does not
seem to
recognize the top of the slide I am showing and the bottom of the
previous
slide, Jaws crosses into the previous slide and reads the information
there.
Gets frustrating. The worst however is when I can not down arrow
through a
complete slide and read the points I have included.
I may have to give 2000 a try.

Hi Robert,
I use PowerPoint 2000 with JAWS7 on a Dell laptop on a daily basis,
and I
dont recognize your problems. But I dont understand what up and down
arrow
have to do with next and previous slied.
I use spacebar and backspace to move around during a slide show and
that
works just fine.
I dont have PowerPoint 2003, so I cant verify that PowerPoint causes
the
trouble.
I would suggest you try PPT2000 your self and see if it fixes your
problem.
Hope this helpts.
-Harald

Subject: PowerPoint 2003, Jaws 7, focus problems in presentation mode
Thanks in advance.
I am using PowerPoint 2003, Jaws 7
When in presentation mode I experience a loss of focus which is
frustrating
at any time, but for me, especially when teaching a class of
university
students.
Sometimes jaws works well, others I have to alt tab away from the
presentation and then back to it. Sometimes this doesn't help
either.
Symptoms: If up-arrowing jaws will read previous slide. If
down-arrowing
jaws only reads a line or two then makes the sound that indicates the
bottom
of a page, this in spite of the fact that it has not yet reached the
bottom
of the slide.
I tried various monitor settings.
I have done all the XP and Office updates.
My computer is a Dell inspiron 9200 laptop using the ATI Radeon
mobility vid
card, XP home, AVG anti-virus program.
If PowerPoint 2003 is problematic with jaws, I do have 2000 that I
can try
going back to.
Again, thanks
