I am hoping that somebody on this list may be able to help me with the 
following problem.
When opening any of the following types of files, WordPad, Notepad or Document, 
and start writing the text, I get so far down the page, when strange things 
start to happen.

Firstly, if I write a number at the start of a line, followed by a word, the 
number itself becomes hidden, although Jaws will still announce it if I curser 
down line by line.  Yet, if I try to curser through the text character by 
character, then it doesn't read it, or want to recognise the number is there at 
all.

Secondly, when reading a part of the text half way down the page or more, line 
by line, it starts to read one line more than once.  To over come this second 
problem, if I down arrow two or three lines, and then move back to the line I 
wish to read, it will read the next few lines normally, until, it again starts 
to read the same line of text again.

Do you think these two problems are linked, and if so, how can I rectify the 
problem.  I have tried maximising the screne, but doesn't seem to work.  It's 
driving me nuts!!

With Best Wishes,

Adrian Rowe
