Hi Alan, Another much faster way of doing this is to paste the message into a WordPad document, which opens a lot faster than Microsoft Word, and doing the same thing of finding and replacing the greater symbols and leaving the replacement field blank. Tab to the replace all button and press the spacebar. This also does it a lot faster than word. Hope this helps.

[JAWS-Users] JAWS 10 Issue
Hi All, I am back on the list after a couple of years off list. I have an issue that has developed that I hope someone can help with. It is fairly complex so it will take a little bit to explain it. I am using XP Professional with all updates. I am using Outlook 2000. I recently installed JAWS 10. The problem is when I go to reply to an e-mail, I am unable to type in the body of the message. This only happens if I have gone to Internet Explorer while Outlook is open and minimized. When this happens I hear the autoforms sound that I set up for leaving a forms field on a web page when I go to the body of the message. I turned off the autoforms and turned off the sound while in outlook through JAWS verbosity, but that didn't help. It is almost like JAWS still thinks I am on a web page. If I go and close Internet Explorer and close Outlook, and then reopen Outlook, the problem does not occur. Anybody else experience this and is there a permanent solution? I opened a ticket at Freedom Scientific through the mail but the next time I signed on I didn't have the problem so I cancelled the ticket. Michael A.

In case this is what you mean, there is a way to turn this off. 1. Hit insert-6 on the number row. This brings up the Jaws configuration manager. 2. Now hit Alt-S and arrow down to HTML options, and hit enter. 3. Now, do the control-tab until you hear Misc Page. 4. Tab until you hear, indicate element attribute. If this is checked, uncheck it with space bar. 5. Now tab to OK, and save your changes. That should fix it. By the way, there is also another command in this list that's called Screen Track Virtual Cursor. I also have this unchecked. with this checked, anything you do with Jaws causes the screen to move with the virtual cursor. With it unchecked, you can move about the webpage, and the text on the screen doesn't move. This is great is you're with someone sighted and they're also trying to read the same page. They are free to move about the page with the mouse and neither of you interferes with what the other is doing. Did this make sense? Hope so.

Re: [JAWS-Users] RE Forms Mode, On or Off
Hi, I am still using Jaws 9, thank goodness, but one thing I do to be sure I am not accidentally pressing enter on something instead of entering forms mode is that I use the Jaws left mouse click to enter forms mode. Then I am not in danger of being whisked some place I don't want to be. I then use the PC cursor to get out of forms mode. If I am not sure whether I am in forms mode or not I press the PC cursor key and then the left mouse click key. to enter forms mode. I find using the Jaws left mouse click very satisfactory. I have not tried it with the demo version of Jaws 10 I installed, however.After hearing all the bugs in Jaws 10 I have no intention of ever upgrading to it if it can really be called an upgrade.

The thing to be remembered is that this is a form of software hacking reverse engineering.

If a person is learning something like this and your at least willing to give the warning that it may cause certain problems, then it's really up to them to proceed or not proceed with the information. If they make the file unusable, could they not repair jaws and go from there? I mean, at least to me, this seems to be a listserve where people can ask questions and learn from one another. It seems sort of odd to say yes you can do procedure X and then saying up front, I ain't tellin you how. That kind of responce sounds elitist at best and snobbish at worst. If your really worried about someone being angry at you if they don't do the procedure correctly, then just don't bring it up in the first place. It just doesn't seem right for someone to decide what information another person can or can't comprehend and use effectively. We all get responces like this day in and day out from sighted people who second guess our abilities. Doesn't make sense to do the same sort of thing to each other here, too. We should all be adult enough to know our own level of comfort with our computer tinkering skills. And we should all be adult enough to know how to handle the consequences of anything we do decide to try. This is only my opinion on the matter. I know others might disagree and that's fine.

Re: [JAWS-Users] RE Forms Mode, On or Off
the last build of JAWS9 wasn't as good, IMO, as the previous build(s). So JAWS10 is actually an improvement, for me. I could get used to AutoForms Mode, and used it for a while; but i preferred it off when i reverted. I don't always want to be in an edit area when i go on to google; and I don't want the annoyance of AutoForms Mode coming on and then off with no intervention on my part - which I have noticed happen in some instances! If you ever have to do a real multi-line edit in one box, then it is essential. My Firefox won't work properly with JAWS10 without autoForms Mode enabled - which, as I previously indicated, is not so for everyone. - Original Message - From: Baracco, Andrew W andrew.bara...@va.gov To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Tuesday, February 03, 2009 4:44 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] RE Forms Mode, On or Off Actually, after a little getting used to, I like the auto forms mode.

Re: [JAWS-Users] cell in outlook express
Hi Flor, When I receive an e-mail that Jaws reads cell or horizontal line, and I attempt to edit the e-mail before forwarding by taking out everything but the message, I totally screw up the message. Therefore, by pasting into Word and cleaning the message up in there, copying it to the clipboard, and then pasting it into a new e-mail I now know that the people I am sending the e-mail to will receive the whole message. I may be taking the long way around the block in doing all this but, I have experimented with other ways with no success. Also Flor, I totally enjoy your posts'. You have taught myself others so much with your vast knowledge. Thank you very much to all the people who contribute to these lists'. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Scripting: Personal Jaws Startup
I well remember this coming up five or six years ago although I don't recall most of the details. The thing to be remembered is that this is a form of software hacking reverse engineering. The original machine code is being altered and strictly speaking, even loosely speaking I suppose it is in breach of copyright. It involves altering the distributed executable code of Jaws. Those familiar with byte-to-byte editing of 386 Hex code will know how it is done. I expect it is illegal. - Original Message - From: Kate shamaniclivin1...@hotmail.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Tuesday, February 03, 2009 6:07 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Scripting: Personal Jaws Startup Just a thought, but I'm wondering why your unwilling to share.

Re: [JAWS-Users] clickable clickable
Hi Kate, Are you talking about the mouse over command when you're on a webpage? In case this is what you mean, there is a way to turn this off. 1. Hit insert-6 on the number row. This brings up the Jaws configuration manager. 2. Now hit Alt-S and arrow down to HTML options, and hit enter. 3. Now, do the control-tab until you hear Misc Page. 4. Tab until you hear, indicate element attribute. If this is checked, uncheck it with space bar. 5. Now tab to OK, and save your changes. That should fix it. By the way, there is also another command in this list that's called Screen Track Virtual Cursor. I also have this unchecked. with this checked, anything you do with Jaws causes the screen to move with the virtual cursor. With it unchecked, you can move about the webpage, and the text on the screen doesn't move. This is great is you're with someone sighted and they're also trying to read the same page. They are free to move about the page with the mouse and neither of you interferes with what the other is doing. Did this make sense? Hope so.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Scripting: Personal Jaws Startup
Just a thought, but I'm wondering why your unwilling to share. If a person is learning something like this and your at least willing to give the warning that it may cause certain problems, then it's really up to them to proceed or not proceed with the information. If they make the file unusable, could they not repair jaws and go from there? I mean, at least to me, this seems to be a listserve where people can ask questions and learn from one another. It seems sort of odd to say yes you can do procedure X and then saying up front, I ain't tellin you how. That kind of responce sounds elitist at best and snobbish at worst. If your really worried about someone being angry at you if they don't do the procedure correctly, then just don't bring it up in the first place. It just doesn't seem right for someone to decide what information another person can or can't comprehend and use effectively. We all get responces like this day in and day out from sighted people who second guess our abilities. Doesn't make sense to do the same sort of thing to each other here, too. We should all be adult enough to know our own level of comfort with our computer tinkering skills. And we should all be adult enough to know how to handle the consequences of anything we do decide to try. This is only my opinion on the matter. I know others might disagree and that's fine. I just wanted to put in my own two cents.

Re: [JAWS-Users] problem with my book external hard drive
Hi Joe, Just to add to what Jack is saying, I've noticed that some external drives are formatted incorrectly as FAT32, when they should be formatted as NTFS. When your friend formats the drive, make sure he specifies NTFS and not FAT32, otherwise he may find the drive crashing at some point. Oh, and for the first time you format it, I would do a complete format, not a quick format, as that will only erase what is on the drive. True, it will take you longer to accomplish the format, but it's always safer to be thorough, than not being thorough enough.

Re: [JAWS-Users] problem with my book external hard drive
Hi Jo, Did the computer assign a letter to the external drive? For example, My Book F. If it did do this, then the computer does recognise the drive. When you open a new external drive, they are usually shipped from the factory with software, like programs to auto backup files and stuff like that. I've actually copied those files off of the external drive and kept them in a folder on my C drive so I could look at them later. Anyway I'm off track... Ask him if the computer does see the external drive. If so, while sitting on the My Book, hit the alt key and bring up the file menue, and arrow down to Format. It will want to do a full erase on it. This can take a couple hours to complete. But once it's done, he will have a clean hard drive that's ready to use. Hope this helped.

Hello Flor, Yes, after much puzzlement, we uninstalled everything, and then manually removed every remaining file and folder related to FS and the display.

I've been having problems with strange error messages using Jaws 8. That's a long story, but I have pretty much determined it comes from corrupted files with the installation of the PacMate braille display. My problem is that no matter what I do, I can't seem to uninstall the display and reinstall it. First, I tried going into the Jaws window, and selecting no display under braille. But it still loads and is present. Then I wanted to remove it and start fresh. I ran the Jaws CD and chose the remove components and tried unsuccessfully to remove it. In the installer, it showed no display and nothing else selected. However, the braille display still loads and comes up working. Since the installer can't remove the files, how can I remove it manually to start fresh? I should mention that in sorting out this problem, I did at one time completely remove Jaws. It had become corrupted and I had to do a manual uninstall with FS help because the installer couldn't run. But even when I did that, I noticed that all the braille folders were left. They weren't deleted. But now I know I need to clean up and start those from scratch. Can anyone help with steps for a manual removal of a braille display?

[JAWS-Users] Jaws 10 and Word
Hello all, At work I use Jaws 10. I've noticed several problems using Word 2003, and am wondering if others have experienced these things. Yes, I've reported them to FS. I do a lot of work with styles in Word. I often use the BANA braille template that DBT installs into Word for braille production. This involves doing a lot of work with paragraph and character styles. The default for Jaws is to announce styles first when arrowing down through text. However, I've found that for no reason, Jaws will sometimes start announcing the style names after reading the line of text. This means that I can't move through a document quickly because I have to listen to everything on a line before hearing the style name, when in fact I only want to verify style formatting. Sometimes relaunching Jaws helps. Sometimes reloading the file helps but not always. Sometimes I've rebooted the PC with no change. I have no idea what triggers this behaviour or what triggers it to go back to the correct order of reading. FS has no idea either. It does this even when default settings are loaded. It's not any changes that I'm doing. This behaviour also happens with documents created with the normal.dot template which is what is normally used for documents. The second thing I've noticed concerns paragraph marks. I have those turned on so that I know there is a paragraph change and that text hasn't simply just wrapped to a new line. When selecting over a paragraph mark, Jaws remains silent. That's difficult, but not too serious. But if I'm doing a lot of document switching or cut and paste or general up and down movement in a document, the announcement of the paragraph marks disappears. Again, it will return after a while, but I find this behaviour unpredictable. I also find it very distracting to have Jaws announce the new line even when arrowing down through text. I know it's a new line because I'm pressing the down arrow key. LOL. This is with all of the choices of how to report line endings turned off in the Text Processing tab or wherever it is. The only solution I've found is to go into the Speech and Sounds manager, on the Miscellaneous tab I think and change the announcement to a sound, then choose a very subtle sound that I can tune out. I haven't been able to turn this feature totally off. The last problem I'm noticing is that Jaws does not announce anything when selecting paragraphs. Shift-control down arrow to select a paragraph remains silent. Quite difficult when you want to select contiguous paragraphs.

I've noticed several problems using Word 2003, and am wondering if others have experienced these things. Yes, I've reported them to FS. I do a lot of work with styles in Word. I often use the BANA braille template that DBT installs into Word for braille production. This involves doing a lot of work with paragraph and character styles. The default for Jaws is to announce styles first when arrowing down through text. However, I've found that for no reason, Jaws will sometimes start announcing the style names after reading the line of text. This means that I can't move through a document quickly because I have to listen to everything on a line before hearing the style name, when in fact I only want to verify style formatting. Sometimes relaunching Jaws helps. Sometimes reloading the file helps but not always. Sometimes I've rebooted the PC with no change. I have no idea what triggers this behaviour or what triggers it to go back to the correct order of reading. FS has no idea either. It does this even when default settings are loaded. It's not any changes that I'm doing. This behaviour also happens with documents created with the normal.dot template which is what is normally used for documents. The second thing I've noticed concerns paragraph marks. I have those turned on so that I know there is a paragraph change and that text hasn't simply just wrapped to a new line. When selecting over a paragraph mark, Jaws remains silent. That's difficult, but not too serious. But if I'm doing a lot of document switching or cut and paste or general up and down movement in a document, the announcement of the paragraph marks disappears. Again, it will return after a while, but I find this behaviour unpredictable. I also find it very distracting to have Jaws announce the new line even when arrowing down through text. I know it's a new line because I'm pressing the down arrow key. LOL. This is with all of the choices of how to report line endings turned off in the Text Processing tab or wherever it is. The only solution I've found is to go into the Speech and Sounds manager, on the Miscellaneous tab I think and change the announcement to a sound, then choose a very subtle sound that I can tune out. I haven't been able to turn this feature totally off. The last problem I'm noticing is that Jaws does not announce anything when selecting paragraphs. Shift-control down arrow to select a paragraph remains silent. Quite difficult when you want to select contiguous paragraphs.

Re: [JAWS-Users] how does one delete favorite on favorite menu?
You simply use the up and down arrows to go through the links in your Favorites menu and press the Applications key when you find the one you want to delete. I do not use alt D to delete a bookmark. I am not sure if this works. I simply press the Applications key and then use the up or down arrows to find the delete option and then press enter. You will then be asked to confirm if you want to delete this bookmark. You should be able to move to the Yes or No options by pressing the up or down arrows. However, if your computer encounters a problem similar to mine, JAWS sometimes will not move through the options at this point. If this happens, I usually either minimize the current window and reopen it or simply left click with the mouse. Hope this helps. KB wrote: Hi thanks but how does one highlight with Jaws?

Re: [JAWS-Users] how does one delete favorite on favorite menu?
OK, let's settle this once and for all. *smile* In windows XP. 1. Go to your C drive and find documents and settings. Hit enter. 2. Find your user name in the documents and settings folder and hit enter again. 3. Hit F for favorites, and hit enter. 4. arrow down the list and just hit the delete key on the ones you want to get rid of. 5. When you're done, simply alt-F4 out of Favorites. With Vista, you follow these same steps, but rather than documents and settings, you'll enter on Users. Everything else if the same. Hope this helped. - Original Message - From: Tim t...@nwiusa.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Tuesday, February 03, 2009 11:18 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] how does one delete favorite on favorite menu?

Re: [JAWS-Users] how does one delete favorite on favorite menu?
You could do it this way but why would you want to since it takes much longer? You can simply press the alt key in your browser and press the left or right arrow until you find the Favorites menu. Jack wrote: OK, let's settle this once and for all. *smile* In windows XP. 1. Go to your C drive and find documents and settings. Hit enter. 2. Find your user name in the documents and settings folder and hit enter again. 3. Hit F for favorites, and hit enter. 4. arrow down the list and just hit the delete key on the ones you want to get rid of. 5. When you're done, simply alt-F4 out of Favorites. With Vista, you follow these same steps, but rather than documents and settings, you'll enter on Users. Everything else if the same.

You simply use the up and down arrows to go through the links in your Favorites menu and press the Applications key when you find the one you want to delete. I do not use alt D to delete a bookmark. I am not sure if this works. I simply press the Applications key and then use the up or down arrows to find the delete option and then press enter. You will then be asked to confirm if you want to delete this bookmark. You should be able to move to the Yes or No options by pressing the up or down arrows. However, if your computer encounters a problem similar to mine, JAWS sometimes will not move through the options at this point. If this happens, I usually either minimize the current window and reopen it or simply left click with the mouse. Hope this helps. KB wrote: Hi thanks but how does one highlight with Jaws?

I thought somewhere on favorites and tried but must have left out a step somewhere because alt delete did nothing. But try again.

[JAWS-Users] I need help with outlook express please?
Howdy. I hope my explination of this problem isn't too confusing, but I'm finding it hard to move my folders within outlook express, because for some reason the inbox keeps closing, and in order to move my folders or files to different folders within, I have to keep opening the inbox. It keeps saying inbox closed, and that's not happened to me before, until a couple of weeks ago, and damned if I know how that happened. Your help would be much appreciated as always. Thanks in advance. Kimmie. IF THERE is righteousness in the heart, there will be beauty in the character. IF THERE will be beauty in the character, there will be harmony in the home.
