I experienced something like this some time ago and had to do the following.
I switched to jaws cursor, arrowed around until I found a menu bar in the
document window.
I moved the jaws cursor to the word menu bar and right clicked it. I then
selected close and this removed the problem. I still have the problem once
and a while, but far less frequently now but I am not sure why.

Hello, Everyone:
What are floating tool bars and can floating tool bars cause JAWS to skip
over text within a document when arrowing up and down with the arrow keys. I
was told that they could interfere and to shut them off or "doc them". What
does doc them mean? This person who is telling me all of this is not doing a
good job of helping me fix the problem at hand. He is confusing me more and
more. I am using JAWS 7.0 and Word 2003 and when I open a document and try
to arrow down through the document it does not read all the text that is on
the screen. If I then place JAWS in a say all with insert A it reads
everything on the screen without the blanks and such as when I am arrowing.
How can I fix this so I can arrow up and down through a document line by
line to read the text.
Thanks,
A very confused Alicia
