Re: [JAWS-Users] MS word 2003 and spellcheck
Are you running jfw 11 and XP? I had ms word 2003 sometime ago and jfw5 and windows XP and sometimes I had the same problem but it usually fixes itself up the next time I did a spell-check! Although this was on a desktop not a laptop! I honestly wish I could help you there but maybe someone else knows what to do! - Original Message - From: "Leonard Morris" To: Sent: Sunday, January 24, 2010 7:29 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] MS word 2003 and spellcheck When I highlight a word to spellcheck it and MS word 2003 makes suggestions it only offers one choice all the time.

Re: [JAWS-Users] MS word 2003 and spellcheck
Leonard, You didn't mention the version of windows or jaws you are running however try maximizing the application window with Alt+spacebar and then hit X. You might also try refreshing the screen with insert+escape. These usually solve that issue with JFW 9.latest and windows XP-Pro.

Re: [JAWS-Users] MS word 2003 and spellcheck
Hello Leonard; this is how I do the spell check, with MSWord2003, using Jaws. I use, alt+shift+l, you will hear jaws say; "please wait, processing x items". now the number of items obviously depends on how many mistakes. once the list comes up, arrow to a miss spelled word, press enter, then press the application key, you should see choices choose the correct one, and press enter. note, you need to use the keystroke, alt+shift+l, for each correction. I use this procedure if I want to correct on the fly, and not wait until the end of the project I'm working on. - Original Message - From: "Leonard Morris" To: Sent: Sunday, January 24, 2010 9:29 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] MS word 2003 and spellcheck When I highlight a word to spellcheck it and MS word 2003 makes suggestions it only offers one choice all the time.

Re: [JAWS-Users] MS word 2003 and spellcheck
Hello Susie; just to illustrate how it works, 1, open MSWord, type a few words, purposely making some mistakes. after you've typed a few miss spelled words, use the keystroke, alt+shift+l you will hear jaws say something like, please wait processing, then, a number of items. now that the list is up, choose one from the list, press enter, now, press the applications key, and, you will see choices. find your right choice, and press enter. as I indicated, you need to do this for each miss spelled word. or, you can wait until you have finished typing your document, and use f7, as you mentioned. - Original Message - From: "susie Q" To: Sent: Monday, January 25, 2010 1:24 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] MS word 2003 and spellcheck I tried that and there is no list of posable spellings like f seven, you arrow down the list is there some thing I am missing?

Re: [JAWS-Users] MS word 2003 and spellcheck
I like that solution. I did not know about that keystroke. I also if I only want to check the word I just typed, I highlight the word with shift ctrl right arrow and then press f7 I can then check just that particular word and answer no for checking the rest of the document since at this point I have not typed anything else yet. - Original Message - From: "David" To: Sent: Tuesday, January 26, 2010 4:24 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] MS word 2003 and spellcheck Hello Susie; just to illustrate how it works, 1, open MSWord, type a few words, purposely making some mistakes. after you've typed a few miss spelled words, use the keystroke, alt+shift+l you will hear jaws say something like, please wait processing, then, a number of items. now that the list is up, choose one from the list, press enter, now, press the applications key, and, you will see choices. find your right choice, and press enter. as I indicated, you need to do this for each miss spelled word. or, you can wait until you have finished typing your document, and use f7, as you mentioned. - Original Message - From: "susie Q" To: Sent: Monday, January 25, 2010 1:24 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] MS word 2003 and spellcheck I tried that and there is no list of posable spellings like f seven, you arrow down the list is there some thing I am missing?
