Re: Excel Issue
Is this in Windows 7 or Windows 10? I use Excel via Office 365 on a Windows 10 computer with Jaws 2019 and I can use it all day long without any issues whatsoever.

I have had limited success in finding emojis on the screen itself, but scrolling is a bit unreliable/at an awkward angle as I'm using a laptop.

Re: getting rid of inline objects in word
mike mcglashon
Can we do this with links within a document as well? I tried “^l” in the find and replace dialog search box, Nothing in the replace box, no luck, Is there another way or some other symbol to use for links?

Hi, Jaws 2019, windows 10 pro latest and word 2016.
I press CTRL shift o, there are 218 inline objects, I thought by selecting all with CTRL a and tapping delete would do the trick, but to no avail. How can I quickly remove these? Thank you, Sincerely, Kimsan Song

Hey. Glad that method worked for you. It didn’t exactly work for me when I tried it last, but that was a large document OCRed by Adobe Aacrobat and converted to a word document. There may have been all sorts of weird issues with it.
BTW, it’s “caret”, not “carrot”, the vegetable. 8grins*

Re: Does the latest ITuneds work with JFW 2019?
Richard Turner
Kevin, I don’t use VLC, but I set up a shortcut on my desktop to go to the folder where all the iTunes files are located. The path is: "C:\Users\Test\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media" Replace test with your unique folder for your setup in the Users folder and you can get right to where the files are. You may have a subfolder under iTunes Media called Music that then will have all the folders of the albums you have purchased. I suspect VLC could be directed to that folder, if it supports m4A files.

I must admit I don’t use playlist at all with iTunes but for standard album playing the normal iTunes advice for use with screenreaders is to change the default album view to songs view in the sidebar table. You can then enable column browser which will sort and organise your iTunes library into easy columns of artist albums and songs, and Genres also it you wish though I normally disable this particular column. Column browser view is only available once songs view has been enabled. Whether this helps with playlists I am not sure. Basically I use iTunes as a shop and for iTunes Match and little else, preferring to use VLC for my actual music playing. David Griffith. Sent from Mail for Windows 10

Hello,
The question of how to create fillable forms is a different issue from what to do with a form you have received that is not fillable. You can't take the form you have received from the government and somehow recreate it in a fillable format. David

Try ALT+L,N to get to them. I'm not going to try to list the "next letter" as there are 18 options between the 6 Legacy controls and 12 active X controls. I'm betting that you'll find most, if not all, of those familiar bits there. They're much easier to use and more easily accessible than their "modern" equivalents. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1903, Build 18362 Many of the insights of the saint stem from his experience as a sinner. ~ Eric Hoffer

I also notice rthat if I shut down JAWS and bring it back up, the problem goes away for a little while. Any ideas?

I created dozens while working for the state of TN, but as Word versions evolved, I lost the ability to access some of the form controls I needed. I gave up with version 2007- and don’t know if accessibility improved or deteriorated further after that.

you cannot buy iTunes music with anything but iTunes that I'm aware of.

So Kevin, are you listening just on your computer?
I do not use Winamp, so I do not know if you can play m4a files with it; but once the music is downloaded you could convert it to mp3 and use it to play your playlists.
If you are doing playlists on an iPhone or iPad; you are stuck with iTunes; or you can make them right on your device.
