Other things are as you suggested, but I could not uncheck "mark up". I tried 
doing it by pressing space bar, but it didn't work.

Best wishes and regards,

  sometimes  I also have that problem. It sometimes work if you read the 
document in normal view. choose normal  from the view menu. make sure only  the 
standard and formatting toolbars are checked under the view menu and make sure 
mark up is unchecked under the view menu as well.

  Hi list,

   

  I've been experiencing a kind of strange problem with MS Word. Basically, the 
problem is that I cannot read properly in a Word document, for instance, even 
if I try to arrow down, JAWS will get stuck and only read the line on which it 
was focussed, not allowing me to read the lines below. However, if I am at the 
end of the document, then I can arrow up and read the text from bottom to top. 
Until now I was using JAWs 6 and once I dowloaded demo version of JAWS 7, which 
proved to work properly with Word, and which made me decide to purchase JAWS 7. 
Now today I installed JAWS 7, but the problem with Word has remained exactly 
the same. I am using Word 2003.

   

  I am frustrated because on Tuesday morning I have to take a translation test 
for a job!

   

  Best regards,

  Gezim
