I am not aware of any keyboard shortcuts in Word that allow you to navigate to the next or previous column. Window-Eyes does have a next line/previous line hotkey that respects columns. So, if you are reading a multi-column document by line, you should use Alt-Comma and Alt-Period instead of Up and Down to ensure you don't skip any content in the other columns. Best, Marc

Latest WE. Whenever I open a document in MSWord, it opens in what is reported as Preview Mode. This causes the speech to only read what is in one of the columns on the page, for instance in a received and scanned letter, you may not get much more than the addresses. I guess I - somehow - could change to another View-setting. But how do I do that, and which View-setting is prefered to have all the text show up in WE? And, is there any way for me to "lock" Word to always open in that view, even when creating new documents? As it stands, I will have to open the document in Word, then Cut and Paste the contents into a Notepad screen, to have all the text shown and read by my Window-Eyes. Would have been great to be able to operate all the text directly in Word. BTW, is there a simple way for me to jump from one column in a text, to the Next/Previous??
