Hi Chip.
I maximized the screen and that helped a bit.
Part of the problem might not be Jaws, but my unfamiliarity with Jaws
and
This particular type of editing.
Should I just be able to type within the edit field?
When deleting the row, Jaws spoke sporadically as I was deleting
character by character.
Will hitting enter stop the editing or take me to the next line.
Jaws did not indicate either.
Thank you very much.
Eric.

Hi Eric,
Could you download the jaws 9 demo and try it out? I can't think of any
reason you should have this kind of difficulty, so I was wondering if
this is a bug they've fixed. Having you try jaws 9 is the only way,
unless someone here can confirm that 7 had such a bug, that I can think
of.
Did you check to make sure the Word windows was maximized?

Someone has sent me a Word document that contains tables.
There are drop down boxes and edit fields within the tables.
I have figured out using Jaws how to set the drop down boxes.
I am not able to figure out how to use the edit fields.
When I hit enter and start typing, the text seems to go in.
If I want to add something later, Jaws cannot see the original
text I typed in earlier.
I also cannot seem to add anything and find the original text.
Any help in using edit fields in a Word table would be most
appreciated.
I am using Jaws 7 and Word 2003.
Thanks.
Eric.
