I have seen situations where although the read untagged document dialog box is 
on the screen, you can't tab to any of the buttons.

The way to deal with this is to route jaws to PC cursor with insert minus key 
(top right on number pad) then use the arrow keys to move the JAWS cursor down 
the screen and you should hear the dialog box spoken to you.  At the bottom of 
this are 2 buttons called Cancel and Start.  left click on the start button by 
making sure the jaws cursor is on it and pressing the slash key on the number 
pad which is above 8.



Cheers

  I tried to update last week but am still having some problems - I am using 
Jaws 9 Brian Jaws 8 and we both tried to open a particular document emailed to 
Brian as an attachment - for both of us the result was the same - first we had 
the message *document being processed* and then the message:  *alert empty 
document*.
  This was something Brian needed urgently and he forwarded the email and asked 
a neighbour whether the document was in fact empty:  it isn't so what could be 
causing this?

    Hi list decided to update Adobe from 8 to 8.1 yesterday. I am wondering if 
    it always goes through  the 3 stage business, First one lot  comes  in 
    percent as you would expect then a repeat lot in percent and then a third, 
I 
    then moved to laptop which connects by Wireless.  it did the same three 
    stage Palaver but naturally  slower. Finally I fed in some PDF files I have 
    on computer, cannot see any difference at all.  a fair amount of choice and 
    we are told  our screen reader will be silent whilst Document preparing..
     I am wondering why a local Engineer who  does not use any Assistive Tech, 
    said he has not been happy with Adobe since version 5.
     Is Adobe 8.1 working well for the rest of you?
    Thanks Dorothy
