Steve:
I followed your instructions to see if they worked. I had my doubts
since I had never heard that control-right arrow would identify a
comment.
I followed your instructions to the letter. JAWS never announced
anything with control right arrow other than the next word.
The control plus shift plus apostrophe seemed to work fine. What a nice
feature in JFW.
After pressing ENTER on the target comment, I was indeed placed in the
sentence with the comment, as JAWS itself announced (my verbosity
settings are set to identify comments).
Control plus the right arrow, however, produced nothing but the next
word. I repeatedly pressed control plus right arrow.
I was using JAWS 4.51 and Word XP. Does one have to have special
settings turned on in Word? Is this available only in JAWS 5.0?
I have 5.0 at work and will test there too.
By the way, under the reviewing tool bar there is a reject change/delete
comment drop down.
There, the delete "comment shown," even with the line highlighted, does
not work either.

Subject: RE: Editing comments in word
The jaws keystroke Control + Shift + apostrophe will list the comments
in a Word document; press Enter one you want to delete and you will be
taken to the word or phrase of the document with which the comment is
associated. Use Control + RightArrow to get to the comment itself - it
will be something in the form [SG1]. When you get to the left bracket
that starts the comment, press Delete twice. The first Delete selects
the comment field, and the second one deletes it.
Hope that helps.
