How about under speech and sound schemes, choosing one that
announces style changes???
Thanks for the tips and replies. Are you telling me we no longer
then have the ability to just arrow down a document and know whether
it is a header or not? I hope not. I'm starting to find very helpful
features being dropped off the more updated we get here. In Word
2003 one could create a heading text by:
1. Highlight the text
2. Press Alt Shift Right or left Arrow to scroll through the
heading text levels
3. Then go about your business
Each time then you arrowed across that header text Jaws would say
"Header level 1". Jaws 13 says it ought be reading this If you go to
the Quick Settings it says:
"This option controls how JAWS announces headings in Word documents.
Select between Off, On, and Heading and Level. If you want all
styles to be indicated instead of just headings, choose the Style
Changes option rather than Headings Announce from the QuickSettings dialog.
The default setting is Heading and Level."
One shouldn't have to enter into quick key mode to find out where
you are in a nest of headers. One can always find the headers with
Insert F6 as well but I'm talking about reading a document and as
you scroll or read, you are able to tell what heading level you are
in and if it is nested within another . For example:
(Header 1) Honey Do List
(Header 2) House
* Mow grass
* Fix door
* Clean garage
(Header 1) My To Do List
(header 2) Calls to make
(header 3) Cold calls
* ABC Company
*DEF Company
(header 3) Follow ups
*XYZ Company
*STP Company
(header 2) Personal calls
*Call parents for anniversary
A cheezy example but it is helpful to know what level is what when
just arrowing down a document. Especially if it is one you haven't
created and never saw before.

If you're wanting to read header style in a document, you could
turn on the quick keys in Word with insert-z, then press h to move
from header to header.
If you want to read the header above the page or footer below it,
press insert+f1 for the page summary and the header/footer will be included.
Hi
If you are using the heading that one accesses through the alt V
followed by the h command, the only way I know of to read this heading is to
use the JAWS cursor. The actual heading in this case is located above the
text edit window.
I hope this helps.
God bless,

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Word 2010 and heading text
I'm running Win7 64 bit, Office 2010 and Jaws 13 latest update. When
I put header text in a Word doc it will not read the header
information when I scroll down the page despite the Quick Settings
set to indicate heading and level. Is there another setting
neededing to be set for this to happen?
