Glad it worked for you Justine - it did my head in until someone else on the
list many moons ago gave me the tip - bless their cotton socks!!!

I hesitate to correct you, but if you want to go back to moving by complete
page with the ctrl+page up and ctrl+page down after using the find hot key in
Word 2003, all you need to do is use control+G to initiate the go to page
dialog, enter a page number and hit enter, you will be taken to the page you
specified, hit escape. the control+page up/down will then work again...
Ideally, specify the page number from which you wish to use the control+page
up/down function.
Bit of a faff, I know, but it works.
ATB & HTH,
Barry G

Dear Robert,
Thank you very much for letting me know. I will definitely see if I can
turn on the quick navigation keys, the next time I am looking at a large
document.
Once again, thank you very much; it is very much appreciated.
Best wishes,
Justine. .

Dear Justine,
If I have understood properly your complaint is essentially concerned
with the behaviour of the hot keys control page up and control pageDown in Word
2003.
If you have not used Find since you last opened Word these two hot keys
will take you to the beginning of the next and previous page within a document.
As soon as you use Find however, the same hot keys look for the next and
previous occurrence of the term you last typed into the Find edit box in the
document. They only way you can go back to the next and previous page movement
is to close down Word altogether and re-open it.
If you want to move through the document quickly you might want to look
at turning on "Navigation quick keys" in the Jaws Verbosity tree-view
(insert+v). I would suggest you look this feature up in the Jaws Help before
using it if you are interested.
Best wishes
Robert

Oggetto: [jaws-uk] Re: Find function
Hi Jim,
Thank you for your advice. I tried it and pressed escape but when I
tried to move up or down a page with control and page up/down key, Jaws says
either previous occurrence or next occurrence. This is really frustrating when
I am in a 40 paged document because it stops me from moving quickly through the
pages.
Have you got any more suggestions please.

control and F, type in your search criteria, tab to "find next",
press enter then press escape. The last command is the only one you didn't try.
good luck, Jim.

Subject: [jaws-uk] Find function
Hi All,
Please can you tell me how to get out of the find function when in
Microsoft Word 2003 using Jaws 9. I use control and f, then tab round and add
the word I want to find and then tab to find next and enter. Once I am where I
want to be in the document I cannot get out of this function. I enter on cancel
and even close if the option comes up. To a sighted person it has shut down and
I can read the document. If I want to scan through the document by using
control and page up or page down, Jaws asks if I want to carry on searching,
yes or no. Pressing no or even ok if this is brought up, makes no difference.
The only way for it to clear is to press alt and f4 and then reopen the
document, which defeats the purpose of using the find function.
I would be grateful if anybody can assist me.
Thank you very much.
