Re: [JAWS-Users] distance is 2 case 1
Hi Chris, I have encountered this problem before. It has happened with Quicken2001, and Jaws 6.2 on Windows XP Pro. I never did find a solution.

My quicken is 2003, so maybe that is the common factor here, ancient quicken. I guess I could break down and buy a newer version, maybe it would help.

Re: [JAWS-Users] distance is 2 case 1
HI I believe that message is coming from some debugging code in the function ComputeDistance in the JAWS Quicken 2003 scripts. It is also copied to the clipboard which explains how it showed up when you pasted the amount into Quicken. The Quicken 2003 scripts will be used for versions 2003 and earlier. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Chris Hill Sent: Friday, March 01, 2013 7:43 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] distance is 2 case 1 Strange subject, I know, but I've been having this little problem with the latest Jaws 14.

Re: [JAWS-Users] distance is 2 case 1
Hi Chris, Yes, you can edit the scripts, making sure to back them up first. It would seem to me that if text was copied to the clipboard prior to the script being active, then nothing else would be placed on the clipboard. If you open the Quicken script file, and then look for: ComputeDistance you will find the related code.

I found it. Looks to me like it copies no matter what. We'll see what happens if I just comment that line out. I suspect it will be fine. Somebody should have removed that testing code.

Re: [JAWS-Users] distance is 2 case 1
I'm wondering if the format that the item your cutting is in, is triggering something in transition to (I think you said) excel when you paste it. two maybe's here: 1. you can look at your control panel, (and wherever regional settings are)and see if there might be a layout that would make a difference, mine is all in American English and I haven't run into this on win 7, I think I did a long time back in win ME and there were two factors one being this, how my numeric's were set to display and item 2 below. 2. you might try setting the numeric data value of the column your pasting into to dollars (or pounds sterling in your case I think) so that it knows that even if it looks funky its money not distances or formula's. control key and space bar then apps key and f for format cells, (alternative is control key and the 1 on the numbers row) and then select a category, sometimes just locking it as text in here can make things work better. and yes, I did see where you said it was mis copying it in jaws, this is why I put the regional settings notes first, smile. really do hope this helps, inthane -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Chris Hill Sent: Saturday, March 02, 2013 7:22 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] distance is 2 case 1 That's the trouble, most of my cut/paste seems to involve financial stuff, so I can't be dure.
