Tom,
I took a web course from Freedom Scientific on using PowerPoint with JAWS and
there was discussion on the notes pane. Basically you cannot do any editing in
the notes pane, but you can create your notes in Notepad and then copy/paste to
the relevant Notes panel for the slide.
There is then a JAWS keystroke to read the notes when you have a slide on view.
There may be some Freedom Scientific information on their training page.

Subject: Notes Pane in Powerpoint 2007
Hi,
I found what looks to be a neat little Powerpoint 2007 tutorial at
http://www.utexas.edu/disability/ai/resource/tutorials_classes/JAWS/ppt_overview07.htm
and thought it would be good to know a little about JAWS and Powerpoint.
One of the problems that I've run into is how to get the Notes pane to read
properly when editing or reviewing slide notes. When I run the presentation,
JAWS reads the slide notes automatically. Does the notes pane need to be
reclassed? Or is there some other method of getting JAWS to read text in this
pane as I add or review it? My workaround thus far has been to create the
slide notes in notepad or Word, then paste them in, not exactly the most
efficient way to do things. Any ideas?
Thanks.
Tom
