Hi, Devona. I still use Word 2003, so I can't tell you how to password protect a document in Word2007. If you'd like, I can give you what I have for Word2003 and hope it applies.
Thank you. Bill White billwhite92701@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx----- Original Message ----- From: "Devona" <djasister@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I don't think they would make JAWS less secure than a screen would be.Bill White billwhite92701@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx----- Original Message ----- From: "Adrian Spratt" <Adrian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, August 02, 2010 7:12 PM Subject: RE: Characters in a password fieldHi, Bill. First, I doubt that's the rationale. As you know, we typically hear theresults of our password keystrokes as X X X. JAWS is merely doing what itdoes: echo what's on the screen.Second, it ought to be for the user, not the website, to determine how to handle security matters of this kind. One person might wait until they'realone to do work requiring passwords, another might plug in headphones.The fact is there are times it would be very helpful to know if we've typedin a password correctly. I remember trying to help a visually impairedfriend create a password for the NLS BARD website, which is more stringent than any bank I've ever encountered. Not only does NLS specify the minimum number of characters and a mix of digits and letters, but it also prohibitsrepetition of any character. Between figuring that out, communication problems and that person's less than admirable typing skills, we took a whole hour. How I longed that day for character echo!! -----Original Message-----From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On BehalfOf Bill White Sent: Monday, August 02, 2010 9:47 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Characters in a password fieldNo, there isn't. If you had JAWS on speaker, everyone else would get theecho as well as you. That would be even worse than it being visible onscreen, since it could be broadcast to a wider audience. It's a securityissue.
