Oops, looks like I missed it. Are those webinars archived anywhere? Thanks.

Tom,

You should have signed up for the webinar on PowerPoint and JAWS that is
already in progress. Check the FS site for any future webinars, or to jump
in on today's session.

Hi,
While we're on the subject of JAWS and PowerPoint, I have some questions.
At the FS training page there's a tutorial for JAWS and PowerPoint.  I've
downloaded it and am working through the exercises.  In one of those
exercises, it talks about using the Slide Master in PowerPoint 2007,
selecting a layout and tweaking it by clicking and dragging shapes onto a
slide, the objective being to set up some content placeholders.
Question 1: While in Slide Master, there's no name given to each of the
possible layouts in the list.  You have to select one, then tab into it to
see what's in the slide layout. Can this layout list be re-classed so that
the descriptions, if any, are read as you move up and down the list?
Question 2: If you're selecting from an array of shapes, how do you do that,
then click and drag the selection onto the slide layout?
Question 3: Why would FS refer to clicking and dragging, with a mouse, no
less, and provide no keyboard alternate for the procedure? Guess I'll have
to find Dan Clark and ask him about that.  Hmmm.

Tom
