Re: [JAWS-Users] New JAWS repair method
Hi, You can press shft+application instead of shft+f10 too if shft+application is more convinient. But not every keyboard has application key. Shft+application and shft+f10 give extended context menu. For example Extended context menu has more Send to entries as standard context menu too. Ps Windows XP doesn't have Copy as path in the extended context menu, maybe Windows Vista too, cant remember.

I'm writing to explain the new JAWS repair method I learned today from VFO. Previously, I'd taken the file of the currently running JAWS build, put it in the C drive, copied the exact wording into a Windows run dialog, etc. this procedure failed twice for me today. VFO seems to know about this because when I called, they had me follow the procedure I'll detail below, and it worked. I don't know why it is different, but somehow it is. So, here goes. First, make sure you have the .exe file on your system for the JAWS build you're running. You can download it from the FS/VFO website. Unlike before, it doesn't seem to matter where you keep it on your system. Close all running apps. Highlight the JAWS .exe file. Press shift-F10. Arrow up to "Copy as path." Press enter. Open the run dialog with Windows key-r. Press control-v, then spacebar, then / (the forward slash key), then the word "type", spacebar, and then the word "repair." Let me try that command line a different way. After pressing control-v followed by the spacebar, continue with /type repair Then press enter. The process went more smoothly than any JAWS repair I can remember, and it went all the way to the end. I hope this is useful.

[JAWS-Users] Vista and disapearing text in notepad
Hi, I have in my laptop 2 accounts. One is for administering and other I use everyday. I haven't modified anything in first account. In second I have played around with various Vistas settings. With this second account I have following problem: (JAWS 8 and JAWS 9.0399 beta too) Text disappears in notepad quite often. If I use up arrow keys Usually. For example: move to end of document and then move 20 - 30 times up with up arrow keys. If text disappears I can't read text with JAWS cursor too. All notepad Window is missing. Instead desktop items are visible. Refresh screen helps, until next time. All is OK with First account. It's seems that I have modified some Vistas appearance settings. I can't find working settings for this everyday account now. I have tried with other themes, desktop backgrounds and colors, no success. May be someone can help me.

Hello, in Excel Format menu, column, width dialog excel gives column width in characters. at least in Excel 2000. -- copied from excel help message --- Type a value from 0 (zero) through 255 to change the width of columns where you have selected cells.
