Tony, Chris may be correct in your needing a reinstall. I have tested the Word spell check with Word 2003 and 2010, and am having no issues. Do you have the correct Office set files installed? That is very important. Also, do you have the Word window maximized first? Also, very important. Finally, are you using the 64 bit version of Word (not windows, but Word). If so, I've seen enough problem reports that I'd recommend uninstalling it, and installing the 32 bit version (which will run just as well). This is a MS issue, not window-eyes; MS has quite a long article on the problems of using 64 bit office. Chip

I open an email and W E just sits there and reads nothing. There is still a problem with trying to edit a message that I'm composing in WLM. Also, now if I'm on a webpage and hit enter on an email link when the blank message comes up W E sees the To field as being empty.. However I did verify through a sighted person that indeed the address was in the To field just that W E wouldn't read it. Now there is still the problem with spell check in word, which doesn't make sense because with JFW and Nvda it works just fine. Why do we using W E have to do all these key strokes to use spell check when it has always been as simple as tabbing once to the list of suggestions and arrowing to the one of your choice and hitting enter. It still works that way with the other two screen readers. I've been a faitful W E user since 2003 and have recommended it to many people. However now Im afraid that I can no longer do so because of the frustration that it causes. Unless some real fixes take place This will be the last version iof W E that I will be using. It may be $300 cheaper that it's major competitor but lack of ability to use it in an efficent manner out-weighs the cost.
