Thanks, everyone. Now here's a slightly related question. MS has their own keyboard interface for the ribbon UI, as in "Alt then H, O, I". But you can also turn on the JAWS rinnon UI to make the ribbo

Hi all. I'm using current JAWS 16 and MS Office 2010. In the ribbon UI, "Home" tab, "Cells" submenu, there is a "Format" drop down button, and on the drop down menu there is an option "AutoFit Column

Tim, thanks for your reply. I've been digging into this tonight, and here's what I've found. First, Windows+; is an excellent tip, thanks for posting it. I can also do insert+shift+r to bring up a lis

That's interesting, and thanks. But it seems to bring up either comments or changes, not both at once. And unfortunately it's doesn't stay open for an alt+tab. I'm using Office 2010, if that matters,

Hi all. I need to develop a scheme of keyboard shortcuts for reviewing MS Word documents using track changes. I'd rather not reinvent the wheel, so if someone here has already devised an efficient sys

I had to help a guy figure out how to do blogs in Wordpress recently, and decided to write up my tips as a Wordpress blog article. Here's the link, if you're interested. It's not exhaustive by any mea

Connecting via tandem center. -Paul

Hi all. Has anyone else noticed that the tandem controller can occasionally lose the ability to control the target system? I'm on the controller end of the tandem session, and when I initially connect

Hi all. Where is the default dictionary file stored? What is the path to that file? Thanks. Details: I upgraded from version 15 to 16 recently, and for whatever reason, the installation process left v

Hi all. I've been working with some clients using JAWS tandem recently, and I'm surprised to find that the tandem feature doesn't appear to have VOIP, that is, there's no way to exchange audio between

I'm using JAWS 15 on Win7 with IE 11 and I have always found Facebook to be difficult to use. In particular, tabbing into text edit fields frequently fails to enable autoforms mode, and focus is left
