Also, Shift control apostrophe will list comments.  Shift alt apostrophe
will announce the comment at the cursor.

Subject: [nabs-l] Using Comments in MS Word 2010 and JAWS 15

Hi all,

I have a project where I must use a plethora of comments to code text in a
word document. The most efficient way for me to do this is by inserting
comments. I know that I can select text and insert a comment. However, how
can I view a list of comments? Does the selected text appear beside the
comment in the list that I pull up? Is there anything else helpful to know
about comments? In my experience, they seem annoying and I much prefer
parenthetical inline text. However, I have to use so many codes for this
data that it would cut up the flow of the document significantly, and it is
easier for my teammates to use comments. So I'll take any suggestions.

My other question is about searching for information regarding using JAWS
with an application. For some reason, I seem to have a difficult time using
the proper search terms to get what I want. I can solve 99% of my problems
by Googling the answer. For some reason, I can try multiple phrases having
to do with JAWS 15 and whatever application I need assistance with such as
ms word 2010 and comments, and I have a very hard time finding info on the
web. If anyone has good, comprehensive web pages, that would be great. I'm
sure Freedom Scientific has helpful web pages, and that I can of course look
at a JAWS manual. I have just found that clicking through a ton of pages is
not efficient, and I would love to bookmark a few good resources.

Thanks.
