Yes. It's just a bit harder to find. In the options dialog.

  Hi,
  Past versions of Outlook have had the ability to turn off the default 
Microsoft Word editor for e-mail messages. Isn't there a way to do that in 
Outlook 2007?
  Just curious.

    This isn't a Freedom Scientific issue. And, unless things have changed 
recently, there aren't any screen-readers that can handle these irregular 
tables, and it really is a major problem. It's something that I've been told 
Microsoft will have to address. I believe that part of the problem is that with 
Outlook 2007, Word is now the editor for composing new messages, and also for 
viewing messages.

      I recently went from Outlook 2003 to 2007. Now I find that many messages 
I get from companies such as Amazon and Tesco cannot be read by Jaws (including 
the latest version) unless I turn off table recognition. The messages all seem 
to be html with irregular tables. Even then I cannot navigate successfully 
through the message so I can no longer pick out links to special offers. 

       

      The quick navigation keys no longer work either and I get an error 
message from JFW to this effect. This would seem to suggest that it is a known 
issue to Freedom Scientific.

       

      If I activate a link to display these messages in a browser then I can 
read and navigate them fine in Internet Explorer 7. 

       

      It is very frustrating. Does anyone share this problem or know why this 
should be?
