Hello,
It seem to be many Jaws user having the same problem.  It is possible that
is problem cause by Jaws.  I  am not sure how to make them aware of the
issue.  Couple week ago I  was able to demonstrate the problem to one of the
tech support but, he simply ignored that, blame it the keyboard.
Anyone has any Idea? 
Thanks

P.S.
I  don't think we all have sticky keyboard issue.
Moe

I've experienced this issue in JAWS as well and have had to kill WE or JAWS
from the task manager.  Sometimes Outlook hangs too and seems to create this
issue.

Hello,
I  have a  new keyboard which I  purchased two weeks ago and I  thought this
will solve my problem.  In my case I  don't think the keys are sticking
physically.  I  didn't have this problem until recent update from MS. For
now, when I  have this issue, I  go to taskbar then to desktop.  That fixs
the problem for a  while .  

Thanks

That is different.  "sticky keys", when it says that in windows, when you
press a key more than once fast, is made so that people can type with one
hand.  So that if they need to hit, say, control something, they can hit the
control, and it will stay registered until you hit the key that goes along
with it in order to do a certain function.  That doesn't have to do with
keys getting stuck.  Mine, though, is an actual key that gets stuck, when I
least expect it.  It's the righthand shift key that gets stuck.  Pam.

RE: Reading cells and fields in xl

2019-08-11 Thread madl--- via Talk
When you press F2, does your PC says something like "this file is protected 
mode "?   Then you should hear something like "  to unprotect press F6". After 
pressing F6 you  should get a  drop menu and arrow donw  to get to unprotect. 
These are the steps I  take when I  get a  file that is protected.  This work 
for word, excel and any MS office files.
Good luck

Hello


When I press f6 the only option I get is to allow editing, which doesn't work, 
or close.


I've tried it several times but as soon as I press f2 I get the warning 
about protected mode again.


Perhaps I am going about this in the wrong way.  All I want to do is to 
be able to cursor across names and scores.  Unfortunately because names 
are ocasionally spelt wrongly, searching for a name doesn't always 
work.  Consequently, I have to tab and cursor until I can find the name 
I want.  That is when I need to be able to read the name letter by 
letter because I need to find it several more times.  The spread sheet 
is the results from an acoustic shooting competition which has anything 
from 60 to 100 competitors and each name will appear multiple times.


I hope that makes sense because it felt like a rant.


Best wishes


Mike.

Presss F6 and erro down to take it out of protection mode, once you do that use 
F2 to edit cell as normly do.

Hi there!

If your  using gMail with an internet client such as I.E or Firefox Etc.
when I am through composing my message I simply press the tab key until I
hear send message or something to that affect.  I generally use Thunderbird
so don't as a rule use the actual gMail program.  Hope this helps..! Good
Luck & Have A Good 1! de
