Hi Steve,

You don't say which version of Office you are having to use but I guess from
what you say that it is likely to be either Office 2007 or Office 2010.

For a resource which I found very helpful, I'd recommend "Windows 7 and
Vista Explained" by Dr Sarah Morley Wilkins and Steve Griffiths.  It costs
about £30 and can be bought in a variety of formats from RNIB Customer
Services.

I also did a Google search for "keyboard commands office 2007" and there
seem to be quite a number of sites out there which give quite good listings
of useful keyboard commands.  It is also worth remembering the Jaws help
commands Jaws+F1, Jaws+F1 pressed twice quickly, Jaws+W and Jaws+H.  All of
these give you reasonably good help for the context of where you are working
at that time.

Hope this helps.

Jamie

Hi All,
Without warning, I have been changed from Windows XP to Window 7 on my work
PC.

The way Jaws 12 and Windows 7 interact is something I'm struggling to get my
head around at the moment.

In particular opening an attachment on an e-mail seems very different and
I'm not sure how to do it.
The usual menu structures in the MS products  seems very different and I'm
unsure how to navigate them.

If there are some hints or tips on the new concepts or if you could point me
to some on-line resources I'd be very grateful.

Many thanks

Steve
