Interesting, this works for me using jaws key+left and right arrow as well. I cannot test with word but when I have used word, I have noticed that anytime you have strings of characters broken up by punctuation, there is an accounting as you move through the string for each punctuation number even though the entire string may be pronounced with each progress toward the right. I have been told that this is a windows behavior which is why the special scripts were developped for handling numeric chunks. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cy" <cselfridge@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, March 25, 2004 10:25 PM Subject: RE: jaws with numbers and notepad/outlook express David, An interesting observation, I can read the numbers in your email quite easily by using the insert + right arrow. (not insert + control + right arrow) Now, in Word it don't work the same. It will NOT read the whole number? Test yor theory actually using Word as well. I do have Office XP, JAWS 5.0.62, XP Home Athlon XP processor.
