The reason JAWS does not speak with the control + space and the alt down or
up arrows is that these keys are assigned to JAWS scripts. If you preceed
the commands with the JAWS pass key through command, JAWS Key + 3, (that is
3 on the number row not the key pad) these functions do work.

Hello Everyone I have been using Money Talks for about a week now and
overall find it a very good program. Here are some of my observations of
things that may help with the ease of use for the end user and some bugs
that I found while using JAWS On my system.
Money Talks
Can Money Talks be se-up so you can get the current balance from wherever
you are instead of manually going to the last entry in the balance column?
Can Money talks recognize a shared minimum balance between a checking and
saving account so that if the minimum balance is reached between these two
account a notification can be given when a service charge will be applied?
The Date field should be self formatting so only the numbers of the date
need to be entered. ( 010105 converts to 01/01/05 )
When using ctrl + tab to move through the open account screens, the window
moved to should be announced. This does not happen whether using jaws or the
built in speech.
Can a selection be place int the transfer dialog box to set up a recurring
transfer such as an amount of money that is transferred from a checking
account to a savings account each month?
Is there a way to allow for deletion of misspelled entries or unwanted
entries in the drop down boxes?
JAWS
CTRL + SPACE does not work; no announcement of current transaction. ( I have
seen that this has been address with some jaws scripts by another list
member. )
The find previous or next uncleared item does not WORK WITH JAWS.
JAWS will not read the entire entry in the pay name field although the
application speech will.
When using jaws the column headings are not announced when moving across the
sheet from column to column. This Applies No Matter Which User Verbosity Is
Used (i.e? Beginner, Intermediate or Advanced)
when in the category and debit/credit summarys jaws does not speak easily,
when using the money talks speech this is not a problem. This appears to be
a problem with JAWS focusing on the text, if you move up or down a line then
read the current line JAWS
will read it but will not read it just by moving to the line.
6. There appears to be a problem wit jaws focusing on a new application when
using alt+ tab to move between different applications, i.e. Internet
Explorer, the Calculator, a Word processor.
