RE: JAWS latest trick

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?

Did you test Laura's suggestion? I just did, and she's right. It's useful
information.

I don't think ctrl+a ever unselects anything.  I think CTRL+A always selects
everything.

Hit control a twice that way you can make sure that everything is selected
and unselected that's just my advice.  Take it or leave it.

Hi,

Again, W7 64 bit, Outlook 2007 and an HP Pavilion.

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)
