Hi Gary,
Not sure what's going on here, but are you per chance using JAWS 2019? There 
was some serious work done under the hood with Office 2016 and above in that 
release and they still seem to be ironing out the bugs. Word 2013 and below 
is still using the old code. Possibly if you revert to JAWS 2018 the problem 
will not manifest itself.
Matthew

Hi all
Just encountered this issue, I was previously using MS Word 2010 but now I 
have Word 2016 when trying to read previous documents all is fine until I 
try to read within a Text box, when I type in the Text box it echoes the 
letters but when I arrow back or forward to check wording it is not reading, 
I think this must be something really simple and I am overlooking this, any 
help appreciated.
Kind regards
Gary
