Hi,

I have a Word document with some red sentences in it.  I wanted to write
something under one of these also in red.  When I wrote it and read it JAWS
said it was navy.  So I selected it and went in the font menu and chose red
from the list of colours.

Now when cursoring through the sentences JAWS reports the original red
sentence (which I did not select or alter in any way) as white, and the part
I wrote and told to be red as navy.  Yet when I press Insert f JAWS reports
both of these sentences as being red.

How come JAWS says one colour when reading through by cursoring down, and a
different colour when using Insert f?  I've seen this happen lots with point
size but not colour before...

This is using JAWS 4.5 and Word 2000.

Catherine
