Thunder used to read MS Access when JAWS wouldn't. The voice is awful, but it was a good reader.

A couple of years ago, there was another one from The UK, Thunder screen Reader. It's the feature attraction in a suite of programs--a basic PDF reader, Internet radio guide, and other stuff. Ted

Re: Shift F10?

For me, shift-F-F10 always functions like the applications key. It's the right-mouse button that very occasionally acts differently. One area I've identified consistently is when downloading files

Re: Shift F10?

Shift-f10 and right mouse click function 95% of the time just like the applications key. Once in a while they don't, but I haven't a clue why that is.

I would be interested in this as well. We use Communicator in my office and although it is usable, it's not especially friendly. -- Kimberly

Re: JAWS and Firefox frustration

Yeah, the jaws cursor simply has never worked in Firefox for me in the slightest. No idea why this is. It's been invaluable in other pieces of software, but I never used it much in IE either, since

Jaws and Microsoft Communicator/Link

Hi folks! Just wondered if anyone had a hot key list for communicator/link. I have some clients who are using the 2007 version of it, and would like to provide them with some help using it. From

Re: JAWS and Firefox frustration

Someone a while back provided instructions on how to fix this by going into the about:config part of Firefox and switching some values. I didn't save them at the time, but did make the changes

Re: firefox jfw 15 coppying on screen highlight and coppying links

Re: JAWS and Firefox frustration

Adrian, the funny thing is, if I run FF in safe mode, the JAWSCursor can read text on the screen. also, when I was still using Windows XP and experiencing this problem, my nephew said there was

Re: JAWS and Firefox frustration

Mario, I rarely use the JAWS cursor with Firefox. I just tried, and I find it doesn't work on my system, either. The result is different, however. Instead of JAWS verbalizing the cursor keys, I can
