Jamie,

When you are in MS Word, open configuration manager by insert+6 on the numrow and press alt+s for user options, arrow down to text processing and enter on it. Tab here until you get to enhancing support - this checkbox is checked, you have to uncheck it by spacebar, go by tabbing to ok and ctrl+s for save the changes.

Now, close and open again the MS Word and I hope it is now ok.

Subject: Jaws 9 beta reads nothing in MS Word 2003


1. booted my computer with Jaws 9 beta set to run at the Windows Log on
screen.

2. Launched Microsoft Word 2003.

3. Opened an existing document.

4. Was unable to read any text using Jaws.

5. Was able to read all text using the Jaws cursor. Routing Pc to Jaws had
no effect.

6. Opened a blank document and typed text. Unable to read the text.

7. Selected text with shift-arrow keys. No text was spoken but was able to
varify that text was selected with shift+insert+numpad 2. Selected text was
read.

8. Launched Jaws 8 and successfully read the documents in question.

9. With Jaws 9 running, varified that settings for Microsoft Word were
loaded using Insert+Q.

10. Rebooted computer and launched Word with Jaws 9. Same results as above.

This is also going to the beta report form.
