Short Description:
JAWS does not state the status of messages grouped by conversation in
Outlook Express
Problem:
In Outlook Express 5 or higher, if you change your view so that messages are
grouped by conversation, JAWS does not state the status "expanded" or
"collapsed" to indicated opened or closed groups of messages.
Solution:
In order to make JAWS announce the expanded or collapsed state of grouped
e-mail messages, perform the following:
1. Start Outlook Express.
2. From the View menu, select Group Messages by Conversation if this option
is not already selected.
3. TAB to message list view.
4. Press INSERT+NUM PAD MINUS to route the JAWS Cursor to the PC cursor.
5. Press CTRL+LEFT ARROW.
6. Press INSERT+G to open the Graphics Labeler.
7. In the Label edit box, type "Collapsed". If you use Braille, press TAB
again and type "Collapsed" in Braille Label edit box.
8. Press ALT+O to activate the OK button and close the Graphics Labeler.
9. Press INSERT+NUM PAD PLUS.
10. Press the RIGHT ARROW key to expand the grouped e-mail messages.
11. Press INSERT+NUM PAD MINUS to route the JAWS Cursor to the PC cursor.
12. Press INSERT+G to open the Graphics Labeler.
13. In the Label edit box, type "Expanded". If you use Braille, press TAB
again and type "Expanded" in Braille Label edit box.
14. Press ALT+O to activate the OK button and close the Graphics Labeler.
15. To verify this change, quit and then restart Outlook Express. JAWS
should now say, "Expanded" when a group of messages is opened and
"Collapsed" with the group is closed.
