Barbara,
I wouldn't have expected an Office reinstall to have solved the original
problem you mentioned, as I believe that problem stems from the zoom
setting of that specific document. If you've changed to 100% zoom and it
still happening, then I'm out of ideas other than to say that you should
still be able to read the document using Control + DownArrow to move by
paragraph.
You also now mention that jaws is only reading half a word - has this
just started happening, and it is only in this document?
Steve

Hi Steve
I have reinstalled Office and it's gone the same again. I have tried all
your suggestions but nothing has changed. I am still being moved up and
down
the page each time I press the up or down arrow and still the same view
on
screen. When I try to read using the cursors, JAWS reads half a word and
then cuts out as if there is something interrupting it.
