Hi, this new feature in JAWS 5 "appears" to work with some versions of Office for some people and with different Office versions for others. If swapping Office 2000 for Office X P and going back again is problematic, then why shouldn't the tauted feature work "across the board" with any Office with JAWS 5. Control insert leftand right arrow is a fantastic command for reading numbers, words, dates and is important that we know which Office it works with. I encourage every one to try it out. In fact, I think "control right arrow and left arrow" should read numbers and words with decimals and hypens right as well. Happy Holidays to all.
