What are the steps to run a repair?
This is interesting, JAWS speaks the number of points when there is a
"blank" on the page.
For example, if I paste a document copied from the web there are "blanks"
when reading by word.
These blanks seem to be at the end of sentences.
When I delete the "blank", JAWS 14 does not read the number of points.

The repair utility with the JAWS set up is more convenient.

I tried this to no avail.
Would it be better to uninstall 14 in the add/remove programs area then
install 14 again with the disc?
Or, is the repair just as easy? I've never run a repair before.

Really challenging, I am also given to assume that this is not a space,
it
might be a tab. If tab indication is on it might be announcing it. But I
tried this on my computer, no such thing happened.
Try this too:
Hit Insert and the J key to bring up the JAWS context menu, Under
Utilities,
hit enter on Settings Center. Tab out of the edit box and scroll to where
it
says Text Processing.
Use the right arrow to open the tree, and scroll to Speech And Sounds
Schemes. Again use the right arrow to open the tree and check under
Active
Speech and Sounds Scheme, it should be listed as classic. If not use the
spacebar to make the change. Tab till you get to the OK button and hit
enter.
My last resort would be to repair JAWS, from the set up file, just make
sure
that your settings are not changed when doing the repair. Launch the
setup
file and in the installation dialog box you should have an option to
repair.

I found the "format" section in tree view.
I scrolled down to test some of the settings but to no avail.
I still, for example, hear 72 points or 75 points before JAWS reads a
line
when using the up or down arrow if the sentence has a space in front of
it.
Thanks.

Open word and hit the following keys:
Insert + letter V, this should bring up a dialog box for JAWS settings
for
the word application. Tab out of the edit box, use the arrow keys to
scroll
down to any thing that says formatting use the space bar to change
settings
under this option and tab to the OK button. This should help, if not
write
back to me and we will figure out what can be done. I am on JAWS 13 by
the
way, but it should not matter!

Hi Paul, would I do the same if using XP home?

Hi Richard,
You could go into the following area if using windows 7 and delete the
"Normal template".
Note that where I have placed user name this should be your user
profile
name.
C:\users\user name\appdata\roaming\microsoft\templates
Then open up Word again and see if it has cleared the issues you are
having.
Paul.

I posted this in JAWS but had no response.
///
Hi all. I have XP home and 14.0.
In "word",sometimes when I use the up or down arrow to read a line, I
hear, something like, 72 points or another number.
It seems to happen if there is a space before the sentence.
If I use "control arrow" I don't hear the "point" message.
How do you turn this feature off?
Another question.
I have had many strange issues with "word". For example, it may not
load
until I restart the computer.
Or, it may suggest starting up in "safe" mode.
Or, when reading by line, it may read the line twice.
Is there a way to search if something is corrupted.
Or, are there any suggestions on "all" the settings that are good with
JAWS
users?.
Thanks for all of the help.
Rich
