Hi Mike, In your last email you asked if I had virtual ribbons unchecked? Why would I want it unchecked. Can you explain this in more detail. I am trying to learn what would be the best way to use the ribbons.
Thanks for your help Ed -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike B.

Do you have the virtual ribbons unchecked in Jaws quick settings, Insert + V? Take care.

For example when I hit the ALT I land on home then I did the shift+F10 then arrow down and did not find what you said should be there. Any help would be appreciated.

To navigate ribbons more efficiently the ribbons need to be maximized. The keystroke is, control + F1. This keystroke is a toggle so, this keystroke will maximize & minimize. To check if the ribbons are minimized / maximized do the following: 1. Press the, Alt key, to open the ribbons. 2. Open the context menu with either the application key or, shift + F10. 3. Arrow up or down to the, Minimize, option. If, Minimize, is checked, the ribbons are minimized Pressing, enter, on this checkbox, will uncheck it & close the context menu & your menues will now be maximized. HTH Take care.

When I first installed office 2010 a few years ago there was a program that changed the ribbons to work like word 2003. I can find no way to reverse it. I was on with a Microsoft tech for about 3 hours and she could not fix it. She is escalating the problem. She located the program and uninstalled it. It did not correct the problem. did a repair on office 2010 with same unfavorable results. And as I did last night uninstalled office 2010 and re installed it and the problem is still there. She did find a work around for me. To do an insert in word I can use alt N instead of alt I. She will be getting back to me in 48 to 72 hours. I will never again install something that changes the way a program works. --- Please visit my web page It’s motivational, inspirational with a touch of humor There is also a very extensive resource list for the blind http://www.LennyMcHugh.com International Brotherhood of Magicians member #43990R For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
