Esperanza Villafuerte" <esperanza.villafuerte@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: commands to chose more than one item on a displayed or extendable list Date: Thu, 7 Aug 2008 22:17:00 -0500 Hello all!, please help me regarding this subject. I use JAWS 8 and whenever I browsed web pages to fill out some information, appears a displayed or extendable list, with the instruction which says: "please maintain control key pressed to chose more than one item here", but following this instruction I couldn't chose a second item without modify my first choice. does anyone experienced the same? can one of you chose more than one item on a displayed or extendable list without sighted help? if yes... which commands are you using to get it? Thanks a lot in advance! Esperanza Villafuerte ------------------------------ From: "G.W.

Tab to the replace field and type nothing, meaning leave it blank. Tab to replace and space bar on the button. Jaws will announce how many replacements were made. You might repeat a few times. ----- Original Message ----- From: john To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2008 8:43 PM Subject: MS Word Question Hello List, Do you happen to know how to remove tabs that someone has formatted into one of their word documents? I selected the entire text, hit alt+o to get into my format menu, i then went to paragraph and went down to the tabs button and clicked on it. there is a button that says clear all but it doesn't clear anything, do you know how to remove these tabs from the document. Tabs might be able to assist the sighted reader but all they do is make my document longer.

You can then do another find and replace to find double spaces with single ones. Steve -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of G.W.
