That's not quite true. Some programs, notably Internet Explorer, have no
Windows search command of their own, and in such cases , Control-F, as well
as JAWS key-Control-F, both invoke the JAWS Find command.

I have to review a legal document in MS Word 2007 with redline enabled. I am
using Jaws 13 latest update in MS Office Word 2007. Any tips?

Rick has it right. Internet Explorer does and did utilise control f,
before JAWS, for its 'find on this page' command. (you can see that
command in IE's edit menu.) It's more limited than JAWS has it, but it
does exist.

While that may be true, for all practical purposes, the Windows search

I have used the JAWS read row--currently insert-shift'r'--and read

how long the row/column nor how many blank cells in between, every

In JAWS 13 it appears that when there is a b lank cell
I could not get my voice to work or read the way version 12 did.
This is probably due to my lack of computer skills.
I like the original eloquence voice and could not find this when I went to
13.
The voices in 13 mis-read many words.
So, I went back to 12.
Good luck.

Rich,
In every version of JAWS I've ever installed, including 13,
eloquence is always the default voice that comes up after
installation, not sure I understand why it is not in yours?

Hi
Eloquence is usually the default voice, but it is possible that somehow
through the installation process one might accidentally mark that they don't
want it installed. Just my thought.

Isn't that the pass through command?

Hi,
Using windows 7, I can't seem to launch jaws from the start menu by typing
jaws 13 into the start menu search box. I get an aerror message, but can't
tell what it is because jaws is off. This is a big problem, because it means
that if jaws crashes, it is difficult if not impossible to
Just wondering, because I'm acquiring mind that thinks it needs to know this,
jaws is in MS Config and I know this mind even as old as it is, that has never
been there before.
Now, saying all of that, I am so far a happy jaws 13 user on my laptop, because
that thing loads almost as fast before
hello there;
first,
when your using the run box,
do not type a space between jaws and 13.
type:
jaws13
regarding your jaws icon,
shortcut,
highlight the jaws 13 icon,
press alt+enter to bring up properties,
tab over where it says,
shortcut key none,
type the letter j and press enter.
That's exactly what I did for the icon, and I always type jaws13 with no
space. It still doesn't work.

Try just typing the word JAWS (without the quotes) into the Windows start

I have just installed Kindle for PC. I have figured out how to get a book

sure if it's pausing between lines or sentences. I have speeded up the
speech rate but it is still irritatingly choppy. Any suggestions?
