Re: Navigating Links in Outlook with JAWS

Gene
 

Press the numpad slash, the left click in the JAWS cursor instead of using enter on links.  But don't go into JAWS mode.  Stay in the virtual pc cursor.  This works around a bug in JAWS.  I don't know why it does but it does.

Subject: [TechTalk] Navigating Links in Outlook with JAWS

I subscribe to this and other lists on groups.io in daily summary mode. This means I receive one message per day with links to messages posted the previous day. While navigating such a message with JAWS, when I press Enter on a link, I end up on a page other than the one I wanted. This happens no matter whether I’m navigating with the down arrow or Tab key. I don’t have this issue with NVDA. So, is there a trick to navigating links in Outlook with JAWS? I’m not finding any information in the help files on this. So, I’d appreciate any ideas anyone has.

It's probably because the people that are posting or moderated. And no, everything is discussed live with the developer. And everybody puts their two cents in, and then they help him tweak it if they see any problems.

Hello, I had to delete my personal mail account  in order to fix it. I have it back on my pc however, I cant find where I can set the account order settings so, my personal account pops up first before all my other accounts. It is set for last. So when I open my e-mail app this account does not show till I go to that account to make it show up! I looked and could not see an order for preference of accounts. Any ideas? Cheers Heather s

Most people won't know about these problems.  I am not aware of a crashing problem.  I'm not saying there may not be one, but I don't recall seeing anything about it. 

 

I am aware of DBX files becoming corrupted.  Most people who use Outlook Express probably don't know what DBX files are, let alone that they are more likely to become corrupted in the Windows 7 and higher version of the program and particularly, when you compact folders.  They probably don't save mail they want outside of the program or as an alternative, back up the DBX files regularly.  for most users, fooling around with this program isn't a good idea, in my opinion.  You should know something about the program and how to prepare for problems and you should also know that, while some, perhaps many, users have no or little problems, some people spend considerable time trying to solve problems they can't solve. 

 

Why do people on the list use the program?  I'm curious to know.  It does allow for first letter navigation among folders and if you use a lot of folders, that is an advantage.  Now, Thunderbird has an extension that allows first letter navigation.  Outlook Express may be faster opening messages compared to Thunderbird, but on a modern fast machine, I don't know if the speed difference matters.  Those who have compared may wish to comment.  Then there are identities.  Some people may consider identities important.  for the majority of people who don't use them and probably don't know what they are, this advantage is meaningless.  So, why do people use the program?

If you save large amounts of messages in Outlook Express, corruption may result.  and, as I discuss later, corruption may result in this version of Outlook Express when you compact folders, at least based on the very little I've read about this, especially when there are a lot of messages in folders. 

 

That's one reason to stop using this archaic program.  It is more subject to corruption of message folders than other e-mail programs are.  If you don't want to loose messages, save them outside of the program.

 

You don't compact folders just because you place messages in them.  Compacting folders is done over time as you move and delete messages.  In Outlook Express, when you delete a message, it is still there, but the program doesn't have access to it.  Compacting removes the messages and makes the folders smaller.  It also moves information around so it isn't fragmented, thus saving disk space.  And when     you compact folders, especially, from the little I've read about this, using the Windows 7 and higher compatible version of Outlook Express, that may corrupt folders and it is more likely to happen with this version than with the old XP and lower version from Microsoft.  If you have no specific reason to use this program, using something else is a better option.  Why do you want to use it?

Re: MSWord lines per page

I don't create documents except for my own use.  For the kinds of things I do, I use Notepad.  They are generally things like lists of links I want to keep that I don't want to bookmark such as spotify links, to use not in a browser, lists of books I might want to read, and those sorts of things.  If I want to create a word processor document, I have Wordpad, Jarte, and Word 10 starter edition, but I almost never use any of them.

I don't use Word but you likely have double space on.  Control 1, 1 on the main keyboard, tells Word to single space.  Control 2 tells Word to double space.
