I don't think there is a settings change that can improve this feature.
I used to think that there was no way JAWS could be made to read the
list because when the list appears, there are two areas with focus - the
cursor is still in the edit area, and one item in the list is
highlighted. However, the latest releases of both Window-Eyes and Hal
manage to work with the feature, so it's not impossible! Maybe in the
next JAWS release...

Subject: Trouble with fields in Outlook
I'm using Jaws 6.2 with Outlook 2003 on a Windows XP pro computer. When
I start a new email message, I find the "To" field and start typing a
name. This is supposed to trigger a list of names with the same
letters. Outlook does this, but Jaws does not speak the list or the
automatically completed name in the "To" field. This is true for the
"cc" and "bcc" fields as well.
I can flip on the Jaws cursor and then see the list and can click on the
name I want.
Is there a setting I need to change to have Jaws read this information
in the regular or virtual cursor?
If not, is there an Outlook script?
