Hi Adrian, Yes, I gave it a try but nothing changed. Now, even more interesting is the fact that when I am in an email and press ctrl+A I do hear "selected" but when in a folder such as "deleted items" or whatever I hear (nothing selected? In both cases the keystroke actually works properly although JAWS does not think so. (LOLLOLLOL) Oh well, maybe JAWS V12?

I think CTRL+A always selects everything.

In Outlook when I press ctl+a to select all messages in the folder JAWS dutifully reports that "Nothing selected" - but - when I do the shift+delete and then confirm guess what, everything *WAS* selected and all is gone. Just thought I would mention the misinformation so someone is not lulled into thinking that nothing war really selected and makes an unfortunate discovery. (LOL) Cy, The Anasazi jus
