Hi, try to check the web view.  Press Alt + V, to activate the view menu.
T, for Tool bar sub menu.  Look  for Web option.  If there is no check,
press enter on it to check it.

Hello Yardbird:

JAWS doesn't announce links in Word documents for me, but it does online.
What settings are there in JAWS to allow it to read links in Word
documents?
Do I also have to modify a setting in Word?

Yours truly,
