Hi, When I think about Word, I can remember the nightmare when I was in Cathyanne's class and word totaly bit the dust. I am using home xp and tried to install office 2000 and now when I try to open word, I get a "send-do not send error. When you chose to send an error report, Microsoft doesn't bother to respond to you directly so now I have a question. Is office 2000 compatible with windows xp home? I tried to read the generated report and from what I could tell, there was an incompatibility issue. It suggested opdating my office software and when I did that, I was told to wait to check what update I needed and the check stopped at 40 percent. So now I have a totally screwed up office 2000.

Are your display settings set to the recommended settings posted at the jfwlite site or found in the jaws help system? Did you try changing your screen resolution? Did you run the display chaining manager for jaws and install jaws into the other display? That last part is only necessary if you have two devices for video showing up under the device manager. Now that I've said all that I have one problem with word to tack on. Jaws stops including braille support after I load a document. It acts like it's frozen, but alt-tabbing away then back again gets jaws to properly speak again. Any one else noticed this and have a suggestion. I'm sure this happens both when I open the document from explorer or via word first. This is on word 2003. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Grant Hardy" <grant_r_hardy@xxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, March 24, 2005 12:51 PM Subject: Urgent problem in Microsoft Word Hello, I am having display problems with Microsoft word. I can't see the text I'm typing with JAWS-they look like blank lines, even on my braille display. When I use arrows to move through the text, I see it fine--but the instant I start typing it's invisible to JAWS again. Please advise.
