Re: jaws and outlook express

Heather and Dave:

there is not a format menu option on the menu bar, when you are in the Read 
Message window.

the options that are available are: File; Edit; View and Tools.

However, there is a Format option on the menu bar, in the Reply window.

HTH

Sincerely:

Dave Durber

  I tried the first suggestion but, I cant do alt o for some reason.  But I can 
put in txt only but I like to have the links.  It is weird, it just started 
doing that!  I remember there was an option to read messages as in the format 
in which they were sent but, I cant remember where that was!  I think if I 
uncheck that box, if it is checked, maybe it will solve the problem.  Thanks

    Is your window maximized?

    Also when in the message, Alt-o for the Format menu, then arrow down to 
encoding. If it's not on Western, give that a try, as well. 

    Whenever I get a message that is Unicode, I can never read it. These 
messages say "Unicode" in the title bar, so that gives me a clue.

    Another way to ensure that all messages will be read as plain text 
regardless of the format in which they were created:

    Tools/Options
    Read Page
    Check the "Read all messages as plain text"

    The downside of this is that if you receive messages with links, I think 
you cannot click on them to launch.

      Hello, when ever I type a message using outlook express and go back to 
read the message, jaws gets stuck and keeps repeating the same thing over and 
over. I have to keep clicking on the text in the message to make jaws read the 
text properly! It is kind of hard because I cant see where the mouse is! Any 
ideas how to fix jaws from doing this?  I have windows xp-pro and jaws 10.  I 
read all my messages in html not txt.   Thanks Heather
