Excellent information. I have another one for you that should be easy! How do you go about assigning keystrokes to windows commands in jfw 5 & win xp? Cheers ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dean Martineau" <dean92@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, July 18, 2004 7:23 PM Subject: Re: JAWS 5.0, Windows XP, and Word 97 Judy, the answers you have been given are accurate as far as they go, but it is incorrect to say that there is no solution to this Windows annoyance. There exists a JFW script in version 5, probably in some previous versions, called Script NumericDataSayNextAsSingleUnit () By default, it is not assigned to a keystroke. There is also one for moving back by word, Script NumericDataSayPriorAsSingleUnit () You simply need to choose keystrokes and assign these scripts to them. For example, in Windows there is a command to move forward by word, ctrl-right arrow, and JFW provides insert-right arrow as well. For my personal use, I have reassigned insert-right arrow and insert-left arrow to these two scripts. Now, when I use those keystrokes, I am not forced to listen to words with punctuation repeatedly as I move over them. I do not at the present instant have time to describe how to assign the keystrokes to the scripts. Perhaps somebody else will do is, or if not and you need that sort of assistance I can do it, probably tomorrow. Since this is Windows behavior, it will not matter what version of Word you use, this JFW fix will alleviate the annoyance.
