[blindlaw] Fw: Ray, could you do me a huge favor?

[Farber, Randy]

Ray - I work with track changes in Word 2003.  Here are a few items that
can help Christine.  She can call me at the office tomorrow and I can
hopefully answer any additional questions.  See phone numbers below.

CTRL-SHIFT-E when in a Word document will toggle track changes on and
off.  JAWS will tell you whether it is on or off.   With track changes
on, Word will automatically mark deletions and insertions in a document.
JAWS tells me when I am entering and leaving changes.

You need the REVIEWING toolbar to accept and reject changes.  To turn on
the toolbar, follow these steps:
Alt-V to open the VIEW menu
T to go to the toolbars v
arrow down to the reviewing toolbar and press enter

Once the reviewing toolbar is on then you can go to it and select the
appropriate button or other selections on the toolbar.  To get to the
toolbar 

press ALT to get to the menu bar
CTRL-TAB will then move you through the different toolbars that are
open.  When I get to my REVIEWING toolbar, JAWS says Display for Review

You can move through the REVIEWING Toolbar by using either the TAB or
the arrow keys.  JAWS will tell you 
Previous - Go to the previous change
Next - Go to the next change
Accept - Accept the change
Reject - Reject the change

To delete the comments, I think you have to be our of track changes and
then search for them and delete them individually.

Randy

Can anyone help Christine, whose questions I am forwarding?  I know a
lot of you work with track changes, and I have never taken on the task
of figuring it out.  Thanks.

I've reviewed the forwards. I didn't find info on how I can actually
accept, reject, or edit the revisions. In the screen version, there are
apparently a left arrow and right arrow to take you backwards or
forwards through proposed changes, a blue checkmark to accept, and a red
X to reject. I can't find these. Also, I want to know how to delete all
the commentary. I'm told a pop-up should come up if you"hover your mouse
over the comment and right-click" -- which, of course, I can't do. Could
you forward this with my e-mail address and ask if folks could help me
out with the intracacies of working with track changes? I've got Word
2003 and JAWS 9. Thanks for your help, Ray.
Christine
P.S. I'm carbon-copying some other "in the know" Federationists who
might be able to help, but it seems the lawyers work with this a great
deal, and I just don't have the time to add myself to another emial
list!
