In NAV, hit options and look for miscellaneous. In some versions, you may have to use the Jaws cursor. If so, click on miscellaneous with your left mouse button, numpad slash. At How to keep Microsoft Office documents protected, Enable Office Plug-in, uncheck the box and hit OK. ----- Original Message ----- From: Armando To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, September 04, 2005 4:52 PM Subject: microsoft word and jaws Hello Members, I just installed ms office 2003 and am experiencing problems wiht jaws.
