Hello Annette, In Word 2010 CTRL+F was set to go to the navigation pane. In order to have CTRL+F launch the Find and Replace dialog in the Find tab, and for CTRL+H to launch the same dialog box in the Replace page, you can do the following:
Press Alt+F followed by Alt+T. Press the letter C in the category list of options to move to the Customize Ribbon item. Tab to the Customize button and press spacebar. In the category list that appears for customizing the keyboard press A until you get to All Commands. Use tab key and you might need to wait a couple seconds for the list to populate. Press the letter E to move down to the items that start with that letter. You want to check the EditFind and EditReplace items. You will need to arrow down several times to find them. For each of those items tab to the box that shows keys currently being used and read the line. JAWS might say that nothing is selected but reading the line will tell you if there is a key combination currently being used. The EditFind should have CTRL+F and the EditReplace should have CTRL+H. To add or change the key combination for these items tab to the box where JAWS tells you to enter the new shortcut key. Use CTRL+F for EditFind and CTRL+R for EditReplace. Tab to the close button and then OK or whatever the affirmative response is to keep changes and get out of the dialog box. If the two commands mentioned above already have the correct keystrokes applied then something different is happening. Take care.

Two weeks ago at work and now today at home I am having problems using Find and Find/Replace in Word. I have not check to see if the problem exists in Outlook or Excel. When I use either the keyboard commands or the ribbon for Find and for Find/Replace, The dialog box no longer comes up. Instead, It seems like I am left in the ribbon or in a drop-down menu on the Ribbon, and I cannot complete a Find or a Find/Replace. I am in some type of edit box that announces "Graphic884" for both the Find and Replace fields. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening, or how to get the dialog box back?
