Thanks so much for that quick fix. Yes, I was using the f7 method. My next question is how do you create a rule so these message from this list go in to a certain folder. Walter -----Original Message-----

I assume you are using f7? I've not used that method in quite awhile, but am not having issues with the other method. If you press Insert z to turn Quick Keys on, you can then press m to jump from mistake to mistake. When a misspelled word is found, press the Applications key or Shift F10 to bring up a list of suggestions and press enter to make the change. If you are using NVDA, I'm sorry, I do not have an answer for you. I hope this helps, Scott On Sep 4, 2020, at 9:59 PM, Viola <firekat72@...> wrote: |

Re: outlook
开云体育NVDA users have a similar command to move from one spelling error
to the next when in Word or when composing a message in Outlook. 1. Press insert-space to switch from the default focus mode to browse mode. 2. Press W to move to the next word containing an error and shift-W for the previous error. Users who choose to purchase the Leasey addon for JAWS have some additional methods which I'll address in another message.

Re: are their any tutorials for outlook 2016
开云体育Conscdering that I was able to get a fully edited transcript turned around on an AppleVis podcast in a few days, I'd say they are not working very hard to make it happen. We make noprofit off of anything we do. The going rate for professional transcription is roughly $75 an audio hour. I guess we now know how little equal access is worth monitarily. Quite sad, isn't it? I've also noticed Hadley doesn't have an issue providing them either.Scott On Sep 4, 2020, at 1:37 PM, heather albright <kd5cbl@...> wrote:

Re: Track Changes in Word 2016
Any time I plan to make chanbges, I make a working copy. One copy will never be changed and I'll work through the other. This way if anything gets lost, deleted or whatever, I can go back to the beginning. On Friday, September 4, 2020, 05:21:15 PM EDT, skylar covich <covich7@...> wrote: Hello, JAWS 2020, Word 2016.

Re: What Software/Versions On A New Computer?
开云体育David…Well, I’ll be darn. I had no knowledge of the Alt Q command to go to such a search box. Thank you!!! Though I have been a JAWS user for several years, I just started using Office 365 and only joined this group a few days ago. I have spent the last couple of hours playing with and learning from this “Tell Me” box. I am pumped and eager to see what else I learn. Cheryl ? From: [email protected] <[email protected]>

Gary, Your patience and tenacity in making the transition to Office 365 is commendable. One tip that I'll share with both you as well as your wife is the Tell Me box, which you can use to look up and execute commands. Press alt+q and type in what you're looking for. As an example, in Word press alt-q and type "center" without the quotes. Pressing down arrow will give you a list of possible options, including one that reads something like, "center, control E." Not only does this tell you the keystroke but pressing enter will actually execute the command. You can also enter words and obtain dictionary definitions for those words. If your sighted wife is a mouse user tell her to look for the box on the ribbon that will either say "search" or "tell me what you want to do" ? ?

Article From HowToGeek: Is Your Microsoft Office Still Getting Security Updates?
开云体育How-To Geek - Monday, August 31, 2020 at 2:40 AM Is Your Microsoft Office Still Getting Security Updates?Is your version of Office still getting security updates? It depends which version you’re using. Microsoft has a published support lifecycle, but it can be difficult to dig up the info. Here’s what you need to know. Software updates are important for Office. An out-of-date version of Microsoft Outlook is vulnerable to malicious emails, but even an out-of-date version of Microsoft Word is vulnerable to malicious DOC and DOCX documents you might download and open. Even a malicious image you copy-paste into an Office document could potentially compromise your system if you don’t have the latest updates. Mainstream vs. Extended SupportFirst, let’s go over the difference between “Mainstream Support” and “Extended Support.” , every Office version receives “Mainstream Support” for several years when it’s first released. Microsoft will continue updating that version of Office with new features. Several years after that, it’s put into an “Extended Support” period. Microsoft will stop adding new features, but will continue issuing security updates throughout the Extended Support period. Organizations may also be able to buy after the period, just as they can with Windows 7. As long as your version of Microsoft Office is still receiving at least extended support, it’s still getting security updates. RELATED: How Long Will Microsoft Support Your Version of Office?These versions of Office are still getting security updates:
Office applications normally get automatic updates. Here’s . The following versions of Office are no longer supported:
Want to know whether a Microsoft product is still getting security updates? Head to and search for the name of the product you want information about. What to Do If Your Version of Office Isn’t Getting Security Updatesif you’re still using an older version of Office that isn’t getting security updates, you should upgrade immediately to something modern and supported. For example, you could get a Microsoft 365 subscription or . There are several?. You don’t necessarily have to spend money—you could like , use a web-based office suite like or , or install Apple’s free software for Macs. Whatever you do, however, we recommend you use office software that’s modern and up-to-date with security updates. RELATED: ? ? ?David Goldfield

Re: What Software/Versions On A New Computer?
开云体育Gary Ray here. ? We recently took the plunge to MS 365 at our house.? My wife is sighted and uses her computer daily to earn money.? Comments below. ? I have Win 10, 2004 and JAWS 2020, August update.? Our last version of Office was 2010. ? My first comment is that? it is best to remove all parts of any previous Office product before taking the plunge to MS 365. ? My next comment is that we used our sighted computer guy to do all of the work involved with going to Win 10, 2004 and MS 365.? ? There are a lot of features in MS 365 that baffled me from the start.? I did discover that some of these features were just old features renamed.? There were other new features that are not anything that I wanted to have anything to do with.? ? What I wanted to do was do the same sorts of things I did using Office 2010.? Traditionally, I used Outlook, Word, Excel, and occasionally PowerPoint. ? Of course, these programs in MS 365 did not react and were not laid out like Office 2010. ? My challenge was to find out how to do all the things ?I used to do in Office 2010 in MS 365. ? So to get better acquainted with Outlook, I went to the Help system and search for Keyboard Shortcuts.? Wow, I thought, I am done!? Well, JAWS did not read the contents of the item I found in Help about Keyboard Shortcuts.? Crap!? This messed me up for almost a day.? Then I got the bright idea to try and copy the contents of the Help system file on Shortcuts to the clipboard and then stick it in a Word File.? That gave me a 60 page document.? Well, it was a little over whelming. So, I made a list of essential shortcuts I’d need to do most of the things I have done in Outlook for years.? I created a much smaller Word file and then went through the 60 page file and extracted the shortcuts I use all the time in email. ? I would have the smaller Word file open when I was using outlook.? Each time I needed a 365 shortcut keystroke, I’d refer to the smaller shortcut list.? I had done a pretty good job pulling out the essential shortcuts for the smaller shortcut list.? One problem I did have was that I found instances of there being 2 shortcuts for a given operation.? I had to try each one doing what I was trying to do in Outlook to see which one was what I needed to memorize.? The shorter file actually got even shorter because I would delete a shortcut that would not work for me.? There were also a couple of instances where I had to go back to the 60 page list and hunt something else out. ? There are instances in MS 365 where my original Outlook 2010 shortcuts actually worked.? That sure was a blessing. ? I have had to basically use the same process for each of the essential MS 365 programs I use. ? I will also note that in some cases, I just fumbled around executing things in applications menus and searched out things. A good example of this is how to Save files to my hard drive in Word.? All I wanted to do was to Save a document to my hard drive.? So, I fumbled around and executed the Save AS item on the File Menu.? Well, it did not look like my old Save AS experience in Word 2010.? Then I discovered “Browse” in the context menu.? Well, my Save As dialogues looked like what I was used to in Word 2010 after I executed that item. ? It has not been a day at the beach learning this new system, but I make progress each day.? I have not had the urge to heave either of my 2 laptops against the wall in several days. ? I have also heard my sighted wife grumbling under her breath as she searches for the same sort of things so she can use MS 365. ? There are a couple of other points I want to make.? It is important to note that we started at Office 2010.? Someone else starting from Office 2016 will not have the same experiences.? My last point is that one must NEVER give up.? It is all about learning how to do the same things in different ways. ? From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Dena Polston

I have begun looking at new computers since my current Windows computer is over 7 years old.

Re: Having JAWS 2020 Speak Capital Letters With Microsoft Word 2016
开云体育After experimenting with this option I have discovered that what
it actually does is to speak words with capital letters in a
higher pitch. If you want the "say all" to speak the word "cap"
for capitalized words you do have to modify the caps voice in the
Misc tab for that particular scheme. David Goldfield, Blindness Assistive Technology Specialist JAWS Certified, 2019 On 9/4/2020 12:23 PM, David Goldfield
