I just remember having something similar happening a few versions back, and I found that work around. But if it doesn't work, then we'll have to try something else. Justin

But once I name the new document, I can switch back and forth without a problem. Does what you describe with Word 2016 happen after you've named the newly opened document? -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of r...@q.com Sent: Friday, December 23, 2016 11:28 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and MS Word 2016 document focus problem Hi, I am running JFW 18, Windows 10, and MS Word 2016. When I open a document when another document is already open I have a lot of trouble getting Jaws to focus on the newly opened document. Jaws+T says that I am in the new document. However, Jaws will not read the document and focus returns to the previous document. Sometimes I can move the Jaws cursor to text in the newly opened document and route the PC cursor to the Jaws cursor. However, this only works part of the time. Sometimes I can resolve the problem by alt-tabbing to another program and then alt-tabbing back to the newly opened document. But, again, this works only part of the time. Sometimes I can resolve the problem by restarting Jaws. I have tried going back to the default user settings (control+spacebar, Z). That does not resolve the problem. Does anyone have any ideas?
