Editing after Defining Names in Excel
I¡¯m running Office 2016 with JAWS 2020 and when I¡¯m in Excel, I use the Control F3 command to define my names of regions. JAWS does a very good job of reading my column and row headers up until I edit a cell. The moment I edit a cell JAWS stops reading me the column and row headers. I have to alt tab out of Excel and then alt tab back into it to get it to read me this information and it¡¯s getting annoying having to alt tab in and out every time I edit a cell. I¡¯ve gone into JAWS Quick Settings and turned the define names override off but I¡¯m not wsure what I¡¯m missing.

Question regarding comparing/reviewing documents
Hi everyone! So I've gotten my first couple assignments back from my job. I didn't do so well. I was asked to run a compare documents thing to see where and how I messed them up. I know you can go through comments fairly easily, but what about revisions. Can they be treated the same way? I need to know how to improve on my performance. Thanks, Chelsea

Locked To List Members: General Protocols Regarding Posting To This List
Hello. This is just to let people know that I would appreciate it if you would create a new message if you have a new question to ask as opposed to replying to another message thread with a new question. I realize that to some this may seem trivial but it really does help for people who are searching for a solution to a problem that they may be having since messages on most email lists are archived. Also, as a reminder please make your subject lines detailed enough so that people who are skimming through messages will have a clear idea of a message's subject before they open the email. Messages such as "Question" or "Outlook Question" are not detailed enough and in those cases I will usually rename them. On most lists that I'm subscribed to I just delete messages with this type of generic subject line. Examples of subject lines which are helpful are, "How to Set Up Message Rules Using Outlook 365" or "Problem With JAWS 2019 Reading Comments in Word 2016." Subjects like this really make a huge difference for those who are either searching through the archives or who are performing Google searches to try and find a solution to their problem. I've been one of those people searching for solutions on more than one occasion and it's likely you will be one of them, as well. Finally, while there are no hard and fast rules for this I would ask that you consider not submitting short messages just saying "thanks" or "OK, I'll try that." Many of us are subscribed to many email lists and, to be blunt, messages like this are just a waste of time. Before I post a response I often ask myself, "is what I'm about to write of value or importance to everyone who will read this message?" If I conclude that the answer is that it probably is not then I don't send the message. That being said any question related to Office is fine to ask, even if you do happen to think that you're the only one with the problem. The chances are that if you've encountered a problem someone else has encountered the same problem, as well, and someone may well encounter it in the future who will find your question and will be very thankful that you asked it. If a solution that was suggested managed to solve your problem it's perfectly fine to acknowledge that the solution worked along with any additional comments you'd care to add. Finally, as a reminder this list is for Office products, such as Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Outlook, etc. Most people have been very good at only asking questions or writing replies for those types of software. I think it goes without saying that Zoom, Google Drive, Dropbox and antivirus software, even Microsoft Defender, are not Office products and questions about them should not be asked on a list dealing with Microsoft Office. There are plenty of mailing lists to tackle these issues. To locate them, you can go to www.groups.io, go to the link to find a group and search for Win10, Techtalk and other blindness lists. Many thanks. -- David Goldfield, Blindness Assistive Technology Specialist JAWS Certified, 2019 WWW.DavidGoldfield.org -- Feel free to visit the moderator's Web site www.davidgoldfield.org

Office 365; Outlook does not Update Automatically 6
I¡¯ve used various versions of office for many years, and I never ran into this problem until recently. I¡¯m using the latest version of JAWS, Office 365, and Windows 10, and Gmail. I often find no new messages in Outlook, even though I know there are new ones because I go on the Gmail website and check. If I go to the send and receive options and hit Enter on Update Folders, but messages come through. I¡¯d love to know how to fix this problem. Jerry Berrier 508-735-4420 http://www.birdblind.org

Question: How to Have Outlook Check For Mail When First Launched 9
Hi Brian/Chris/all, Could someone tell me please what I need to do to get automatic receipt of new mail when I open outlook? Currently when I open it, I need to press f9 to get new mail from all accounts. I remember previously mail came straight to my inbox from all accounts once I started outlook. Using latest jaws and office/outlook 365.

Chris Judge From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Brian Vogel Sent: September 21, 2020 7:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [office-accessibility] office 365 and latest Jaws and Outlook If a laptop is in use, and it has a "media keys" function for the function keys enabled by default, that could definitely be the issue. I make the presumption, and I know I should not, that anyone setting up a laptop for a screen reader user will turn off that function as a matter of course. But, that requires that you have some idea of how screen reader users actually interact with the keyboard, and many don't because there are not tons of opportunities for your "general purpose IT person" to do this. I certainly wouldn't have thought of it until I got into "the assistive technology biz."

office 365 and latest Jaws and Outlook 16
Hi Listers: I can't close programs in Windows 10, 365 and Outlook by using Ctrl-F4 or Alt-F4. I can't stop Jaws by using Ctrl-Backslah and Alt-f4. This is a new job and my first time using the updated products. Not sure what's going on here. Also, Outlook keeps asking me if I want to use Ctrl-Enter to send a message. How do I use the commands I'm used to using? Dena dpolston4@...

Locked JAWS2021 Beta2 Build, 2009.52.40, Download & Beta Report Form Links + What's New 3
? Hi All, Below is the download link for both the 32 and 64 bit versions, a link to the Beta report form and what's new in this release. 32 and 64 Bit Download Link: https://jaws2021.vfo.digital/2021.2009.52.400/9C0B3593-17D0-4B3A-B468-98902BAC9EF3/J2021.2009.52.400-any.exe Beta Report Form Link: https://support.freedomscientific.com/Forms/FSBetaReport Enhancements in JAWS, ZoomText, and Fusion 2021 Public Beta 2 The following is a list of improvements made between Public Beta 1 and Public Beta 2. Note that while many customer-reported enhancements are included in this release, the following is a list of more notable changes. Automatic Message Reading in Outlook 365 When you open a message from the Inbox in Outlook 365, JAWS and Fusion will now immediately begin reading the message contents without reading the title or header information. Currently, messages are not automatically read if you ALT+TAB to an open message, or you press ENTER on a message in the Inbox that is already open. To further customize how messages are read, open Quick Settings (INSERT+V) while in Outlook, search for "message," and configure any of the resulting options. A few items you might want to change include: list of 3 items ? Message Header Field with Message Announcement: Turn this option on if you want JAWS and Fusion to announce the sender's email address and the subject of the message when a message opens or gains focus. ? Messages Automatically Read: Turn this option off if you do not want JAWS and Fusion to automatically read messages when they are opened. ? Speak Window Titles For Read-only Messages Automatically: Turn this option on if you want JAWS and Fusion to announce the title of the message window when a message opens or gains focus. list end Enhancements in JAWS 2021 Public Beta 2 list of 13 items ? Added a new Settings Center and Quick Settings option called "Pan Text by Paragraph" which is off by default. When enabled, JAWS sends an entire paragraph to the braille display instead of only the current line as you navigate web pages and documents. This can help improve the flow of reading when panning through text as you are less likely to encounter large amounts of empty space on the display when you reach the end of a line. You should now only encounter blank space if you reach the end of a paragraph, and you would move to the start of the next paragraph when panning again. ? While in a Zoom meeting, you can now press CTRL+SHIFT+T to find out who is currently talking. Zoom recently added this option with CTRL+2 but we were previously using it for a JAWS feature. ? When using the Voice Assistant in JAWS, you can now quickly specify whether or not JAWS listens for the wake word by pressing INSERT+ALT+SPACEBAR twice quickly. Whether the wake word is on or off, you can always press this keystroke one time to have JAWS start listening for a voice command. ? In the Sound Control Panel applet, resolved a reported issue where JAWS was not reading as expected in the list views on the Playback and Recording pages. ? Addressed a reported issue where the JAWS settings Import/Export feature was not working as expected when using Windows folder redirection. ? The default graphics verbosity for JAWS is now to read only labeled graphics as it is no longer as important for JAWS to read graphics that are not labeled. If you encounter a situation where you need to read unlabeled graphics, or you do not want to hear graphics at all, open Settings Center and search for Graphics Verbosity. ? JAWS no longer automatically disables the "Show animations in windows" setting while running. ? Added five new Japanese voices to the Add/Remove Voices utility, which allows you to sample and download Vocalizer Expressive 2 voices for use with JAWS, ZoomText, and Fusion. ? When using CTRL+DELETE or CTRL+BACKSPACE to delete by word in Office 365, resolved an issue where JAWS was too verbose. ? Resolved a reported issue with Windows 10 Insider Builds where Outlook becomes unusable with JAWS after leaving your system idle for a long period of time. ? Resolved an is

Outlook for Windows to get Editor support, native translator, and text predictions
MSPoweruser - Wednesday, September 23, 2020 at 1:13 AM Outlook for Windows to get Editor support, native translator, and text predictions Microsoft today announced that Outlook for Windows will be getting several new features later this year. Editor, Immersive Reader, Translator and Text predictions are the features that will be rolling out before the end of this year. You can find more details about these features below. Microsoft Editor: Instead of a simple spell check, Outlook for Windows will take advantage of Microsoft Editor. Similar to the experience available on Microsoft Word, you can get spell check, grammar corrections and writing style suggestions. In addition to spelling corrections, Editor offers synonyms that you can choose from or choose to ignore. Editor also suggests to double check potential errors and provides refinement options for your to consider that may make your writing more concise and clear. Immersive Reader: A new command in the Simplified Ribbon will allow you turn it on Immersive Reader so you can customize your experience based on your needs including text spacing, line focus, page color and column width all from a new, dedicated contextual tab. Text Predictions: Text predictions feature will suggest the text you might want to type next based on context and machine learning. It will save you time by making it faster to respond to emails. Translator: Until now, you have to install Microsoft Translator add-in to get translations in Outlook for Windows. With the upcoming update, Microsoft is building Translator natively into the application and it will be available in the December timeframe. Just like in Outlook on the web, Outlook for Windows will detect messages you receive in a different language than your own mailbox language and will ask you if you¡¯d like it translated. You can also choose to automatically translate messages when it is received in a different language.

New Microsoft Office won't require you to pay for a subscription - CNET 3
CNET News - Wednesday, September 23, 2020 at 11:21 AM New Microsoft Office won't require you to pay for a subscription - CNET A 2021 version of Microsoft Office won't require a subscription. Microsoft Microsoft will release a new, flat-price version of its Office productivity software in 2021, moving away from the subscription service model it introduced earlier this year, according to a Tuesday blog post from the company. The post, first spotted by Windows Central, only includes one line about the software, but it's pretty clear: "Microsoft Office will also see a new perpetual release for both Windows and Mac, in the second half of 2021." In April, Microsoft transitioned Office 365 into Microsoft 365, a subscription service that added more features to the suite of software tools, but required a monthly payment of $6.99 for an individual plan or $9.99 for a family of up to six people. While you can use Microsoft 365 apps like Word, PowerPoint and and Excel online for free with limited functionality, you'll need either a perpetual version or a subscription to take full advantage of their capabilities. For more like this Subscribe to the CNET Now newsletter for our editors' picks of the most important stories of the day. Some wondered if Office 2019 would be the last perpetual version of the software, since Microsoft 365 came along. But now we know a new version is on the way. Microsoft didn't include any information about price, availability or a specific release date for the new version of Office. Now playing: Watch this: Windows 10: Features to try now 1:53 https://www.cnet.com/news/new-microsoft-office-wont-require-you-to-pay-for-a-subscription/#ftag=CAD590a51e David Goldfield Assistive Technology Specialist Feel free to visit my Web site WWW.DavidGoldfield.info -- Feel free to visit the moderator's Web site www.davidgoldfield.org

Miscellaneous Questions
For those who attempted to help me out, I deeply appreciate the help that was given. I was on the phone with the disability help desk for about two hours. Now four last questions. At least I hope so. SMILES. 1. I know it is either ctrl and the letter d and or via the small delete key that's on the calculator keypad will delete messages. 2. But how can one kill off mailboxes AKA folders? I tired to use the applications key to down arrow to the delete with no luc, and I've tried without using the applications key to use just the delete key and a ctrl d combo, as well with no success. If I could figure out how to kill off some folders and only leave the important folders as I rebuild my mailboxes would be deeply appreciated. I at least have move all of my mail back into the inbox for now. 3. Can anyone help me to create a message rule once again? When in WLM the first column that was in the rule I always made sure that where the to or cc line contains people was always checked. I'd like to be able to do message rules within outlook as well. 4. One last item. Can anyone also assist me in creating a signature aka tag line as well? Again, with deep appreciation for all of the help. Ron who's still learning how to use the outlook mail package
