I know how to get focus on the selected text after searching for it but I have problem getting back to that dialog box again. Its like for window-eyes, just use a setfile to create a a way to put your mouse pointer on the light bar where the colour of the selected text is capture, and I got a choice to click on it and then do the editing but its hard to get back to the dialog box without searching for it. I really wish MS will put such a dialog box switchable with a hotkey like the taskpane, all the extra popup window and then when I search for it, I am sure the box is on the right hand, people with sight can see its there and blind people can get a hotkey in and out of it. =20 Best and regards, Thomas Nathan Chan -----Original Message----- From: mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Linda F.

I know you brought this question here becuz I told you in another group that Dian was doing some research for Word's accessibility features and I told you to let her know any problems you have with it. So, even tho this is a Jaws question and not really an Office question, I'm gonna let it slide cuz I think this is a good thing Dian is doing to help unsighted users use Office better. So...I'm thinking, Dian, that what Rex is saying is that once the find/replace box takes focus, I'm betting Jaws loses the ability to read what's on the actual document...correct? So, Rex/Dian, I don't know what keyboard command you use to put the focus back on the document (in my case, I just click on the damn thing)...but Rex, that's what you need to do. Every time you find something with find/replace, the focus goes bact to the find box. If you click in the document, the focus returns to the document (and I assume it would then talk to you), but I don't have a clue how you tell Jaws to move the focus back and forth between the document and the find/replace box. Do you know, Dian? Paul? Thomas? Anybody? Also Rex...I do have a mini find/place tutorial here, just for kicks: http://personal-computer-tutor.com/findreplace.htm Linda Publisher ~ ABC ~ All 'Bout Computers Owner ~ Linda's Computer Stop http://personal-computer-tutor.com FREE MS Office eBook Tutorial http://personal-computer-tutor.com/library.htm =20 -----Original Message----- From: mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Rex Leslie Howard Jr. Sent: Saturday, November 23, 2002 4:36 AM To: mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [mso] question about find and replace I am using windows XP with Office XP and I also use Jaws 4.05. I am wondering if there is any way to have Jaws speak the current line on which an entry in the find box is focused? In other words, there are times when I need to remove paragraph tags, some of the tags are legitimate, and some are not. I would like to be able to read the line where the paragraph mark is being shown so that I can quickly determine whether or not it is a necessary mark or one in error. Is there anyway that this can be done with Jaws? Thanks in advance for any help.
