There is (or used to be) a setting in JAWS, in Excel, or in both such that if one begins typing an entry that matches the first few letters in the cell above, Excel will finish the entry automatically with the contents of the cell above.  You see; I have to describe the function.  I don’t know what it is called.

It is like Auto-Fill in outlook when one starts typing the email address of someone in one’s contacts (or someone to whom previous messages have been sent).  I tried the Excel setting center, but couldn’t find anything that started with “Auto” that looked relevant.

I hope someone more experienced with Excel than I am (and that won’t take much) can point me in the right direction.

Of course, this could just be functionality lost from JAWS 16 into JAWS 17 or from Office 2013 from Office 2010.  It seems that both have gone backwards.  I’m using Windows 10 and, as I said, Office 2013 and JAWS 17.

I am thinking about converting some MS word report forms at my job into PDF’s with form fields in order to make them quicker to fill out, but I want to get it right the first time. Can anyone point me to a good resource to start cutting my teath on?

Thank you

It just doesn't.  If you want to close it, you have to get to the toolbar, press applications key and arrow to quit and enter.

Hi!

 

When I am in Skype, hitting alt+F4 does not seem *really* to close the application.  This is also true if I go to the Skype <file> menu and select <close>.  When I use alt+tab to move among applications, Skype remains in that loop.  So, how can I *really* close Skype?

 

Thanks,

Richard

Hello Mariann, that is what I am about to try.

I find that I have to reinstall my Skype scripts any time I update JAWS.

Even reinstalling Bugs script I am still having the same problem.

I upgraded to JAWS 18 and now my Skype keystrokes are not working, am I missing something here? I can’t remember if I had the D lee scripts on this computer, I didn’t think so and Skype was working fine.

Mine is set to simple html.

    While in TB, press insert v.  Under reading options, I have detect language change not checked, and all else there is checked.  Also text analyzer and annotation indicator are off. That may or may not help.  Good luck.

Jaws is saying this more often lately. Don't know if it is changes in Jaws or Thunderbird.  It is really annoying when it is spoken at the beginning of every email message by Jaws. Even more annoying when spoken on every line or when moving to different HTML elements with the tab key.

x-unicode  or x-western.  Is there even a control type for this in Jaws?


I've tried changing verbosity and sound schemes but it does not go away.  I've tried to label the element but it can't be labelled.

I suppose I could try to change it in the speech dictionary.


Did that but only works when editing a message. Not while reading one.

It occurred to me that I should just put these out on my Google Drive in case anyone wants to take a look and play with these.  The one for a business sized #10 envelope is even useful at home.  The other two are examples, anonymized, that I did for two different clients for actual work use.  The one that is the client intake form I did not put in all of the checkboxes that would be necessary under the section regarding prior health conditions, only the first two, for abdominal pain an allergies, because this was a draft, not final, copy.  Activating any of the below listed links will immediately download the noted Word document template that employs fill-in only text fields and/or checkboxes to your computer.  If you have Protected Mode enabled in MS-Word you will have to unprotect the template before you can use it.  After it is saved, and unprotected if necessary, opening the template creates a new document ready for filling in and printing and/or saving.  If you want to actually edit a form template you must open MS-Word, choose the Open File option, navigate to the template file (dot dotx file), and open it then go to the Developer Ribbon to the Restrict Editing button then remove the editing restriction.  You have to put the editing restriction back on when you're done if you don't want anything other than the various text fields and checkboxes to be able to be filled in or checked/unchecked when a new instance of a document is created using the document template file (dot dotx file).
