The following is documentation for the Microsoft Word 
macros found under the settings directory of JFW.

 This file contains information which may be helpful when
 using MS WORD 6.0 and JAWS for Windows 1.2x or higher.


   There are many keyboard commands used in Windows which
can be used in MS Word as well. In addition to these
commands, JFW contains macros written specifically for use
with MS Word. Below is a partial list of both Windows
commands along with many of the JFW Macro Commands.

1. Formatting your document.

   The Insert Key plus F: This is a JFW macro which looks at
the conditions of the text at the cursor position. It checks
to see font, point size, attributes (bold, underlined,
italic and highlighted. It also checks the line you are on
to see if it is centered, left aligned, right aligned or
justified. You will hear this information when you are in
the text area of a document whenever you press this
keystroke.

   Keyboard shortcuts for the above mentioned
   characteristics of your text:

   Alignment of lines can be done with the Control Key in
combination with E for centered, L for left justify, R for
right justify, and J for justify.

   To activate various attributes, use the Control Key with
B for Bold, U for underlined, and I for italics.

   To adjust point size, use the Control and Shift Key with
P. Then type the desired point size and press enter. To
change Font, use Control and Shift Key with F. This will put
you in the dialog box where you will have many options.


   It is important to understand that if you have selected
(blocked) text in your document and then use one of these
keystrokes, then all the selected text will be receive the
condition you select. Example: If you were to select several
lines of text (shift and the down arrow once for each line),
then did a control U, each line would now be underlined and
also remain selected until you do a cursor movement to
remove the selection. If, on the other hand, you have not
selected any text and do the same command (control U), you
have toggled the Underline condition (JFW will tell you
which condition). If you turned it on, then everything you
type will be underlined from that point forward until you
toggle it off using the same keystroke.

   If you need help with selecting text, please refer to the
JFW basic training tapes (3 through 5).

   Other useful JFW macros when editing text include Line
and Column position of the cursor which you can determine
with Insert and the delete key. We have also provided a
macro to hear the text you have selected, Shift Insert plus
the down arrow. This macro we call "Say All Selected Text".
Remember that the text read, must be present on the screen.

In Microsoft Word, the default command "Insert" which normally puts you in overtype mode is handled with a JFW macro:
CONTROL + SHIFT + O.
This macro will toggle and announce the typing mode.  Overtype mode is announced with the phrase "black on grey."  Insert mode is announced with the phrase "slate grey on grey."


2. Spell Checker.

   You can access the spell checker at any time in a
document. If you have selected a particular word or section,
then the spell checker will restrict itself to that text
otherwise it will look at the entire document.

   To begin the spell checker, use the Word Quick Key,
function key F7. At this point you become focused on a
dialog box and JFW will read certain information
automatically. If you wish to review the information spoken,
you can use the JFW macro Insert plus F7 which will reread
the information spoken when it first found the misspelled
word. To learn your options, you may want to listen to the
Insert plus H help message to hear the hot keys for each
button (Alt plus C to accept recommended change, Alt plus G
to ignore all  etc.) and also hear other JFW macro keys. One
such JFW macro, Insert plus C, will read the misspelled word
in context. This puts the JAWS cursor in your document on
the highlighted word and reads the line. You can move the
JAWS cursor around if you need more details such as prior or
next line.

   Other Word hot keys in spell checker include: Alt I for
   Ignore. Alt G for Ignore All. Alt L for Change All. Alt R
   for Auto Correct. Alt H for Help. Alt O for Options.

   You can also tab through the spell checker dialog box to
   hear each control.



3. The following information deals with working with tables
   in MS Word:

   In order to obtain cell coordinates when working in a
   table in MS Word, a Word macro is needed.  The macro must
   first be created.  It can then be assigned to a keystroke
   so Jaws can activate it.  Detailed instructions on how to
   create and assign this macro are included below.

   Add the Macro.

   1.  After starting Microsoft Word, select the Macro
       option under the Tools menu (alt + t, m). 2.  Type in
       "status" for the macro name. 3.  Press the Create
       button (alt + e) to Create "status." 4.  Type or
       paste the following lines into "status." Sub MAIN and
       End Sub should already be placed in the macro by
       default.

   	Sub MAIN row = SelInfo(13)
   	column = SelInfo(16)
   	If column <> - 1 Then Print "Column: "; column; " Row: ";row
    End If
    End Sub

   5.  Save the template (alt + f, s) 6.  When asked to
   "keep the changes to the macro Global: status?" choose
   yes. 7.  Close the WinWord's macro editor (Alt + -, c).


   Attach the macro to a keystroke.

   1.  Select the Customize option under the Tools menu (alt
   + t, c).
   2.  The resulting dialog box is a multi-tab
   dialog box.  Select the Keyboard Tab (Control + tab).
   3.  Choose Macros from the Categories list box
   4.  Choose status from the Macros list box
   5.  Tab to the Press New Shortcut Key edit box and
   Perform the desired keystroke. We suggest
   control+shift+delete since Jaws has already been
   programmed to implement this key combination.
   6. Tab to the Assign button and press the spacebar to
   activate it.
   7.  Press Enter to save the changes and exit the dialog.

This macro puts the row and cell numbers of the cell the
cursor is in on the status line, line 25.  Use your regular
JAWS  keystroke to read cursor position, INS + DELETE.  If
you are in a table, it will read you the cell coordinates of
that particular cell.  If you are not in a table, it will
read you the current row and column position of the cursor.

NOTE:  We are aware that, though JAWS does speak text that
is highlighted and text that is italicized, JAWS does not
speak text that is both highlighted and italicized.  Our
development team should have a solution for this soon.
