Chip and all,
How does a lone blind person know that his header and footer are up to snuff
visually? For example, if the professor gives you certain dimensions for
headers and footers, is there a way to know that I've met his specks?

Hi again Dave,
As you say, use the view menu and choose the header/footer choice to go into
the header/footer editor. This isn't a dialog, so you can't use tab to move
around, it's another document editor, so tabs just get entered into the
header or footer.
Press the insert + f1 key to get jaws help, and it will tell you that you
are in the header/footer pane, and it will give you the info that the
up/down arrow keys will move you between the header and the footer portion.
It also gives you info on your document, such as how many sections it has.
It also helps to have your styles detection set to speak, that way if you
move between the header and the footer portion, it will announce the style
change, helping you to know which one you're in.
The jaws help also gives you a link to get more info on the jaws hot keys
for word.
some of the header/footer options are controlled via a toolbar which is
displayed when you're editing a header/footer. This is the one which says
"insert autotext" when you first land on it. This is where you control
choices such as different first page (by selecting the "page setup" button
on the header/footer toolbar), the "same as previous" option for the
header/footer (that's the "link to previous" button), being able to insert
page numbering into the footer, and being able to move between multiple
headers or footers when you have a multi-section document.
Jaws help tells you to choose the view menu and the normal view to exit the
header/footer pane, but this changes your document view (which is usually
set to page view), so I've found that choosing the view menu and the
header/footer option a second time will also serve to exit you out of the
header/footer pane without changing the document view.
hth,
Chip

Subject: misc settings in office 2003 with jfw9?
Hello,
I'm using jfw9 and office 2003, the two apps in this email message are word
and outlook. My issues are separate, but I'm having jfw speaking for both.
In outlook, and this only occurs on this computer, not on another so I
believe it is a setting, when I minimize or close outlook I get it listed in
my systray, this Is not what I want. When I minimize I'd like outlook to be
in my taskbar, and when I close I'd like outlook to close, period. I
remember flipping some setting that made this work, but can't remember where
it is, any assistance?
Now for word, I open up either a blank document or a word doc
with text in it. In either case I want to insert a header or footer.
Previously in office 2k and jfw5 I'd do this and the dialogs would speak,
indicating where I am, either in the header or footer. In 2003 I go to view,
headers and footers, and I'm in some kind of what looks like an onscreen
dialog, but no feedback. Tabbing doesn't get me to the footer dialog if I'm
in fact in the header one. Any suggestions, is there a jfw tweak?
Oh, and what is this Microsoft Office Customer Improvement
program icon? Any idea how to stop it?
Thanks.
Dave.
