another alternative not sure if someone may have mentioned it or not, but you can turn off the virtual cursor with jaws key + z. that should work, remember to turn the cursor back on when done with the email. ----- Original Message ----- From: steve.boodram@xxxxxxxxx To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, August 15, 2009 6:40 PM Subject: Re: A JAWS question for outlook express Thanks.

If I remember correctly, maximizing the message window eliminated it. A nuisance, yes. Just in case, to maximize, you press alt-space together, release the keys, then press x. Make sure you're in the edit field. ----- Original Message ----- From: steve.boodram@xxxxxxxxx To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, August 15, 2009 5:41 PM Subject: A JAWS question for outlook express Hi friends; From JAWS 9 up, I've been having this problem. Each time I reply or forward certain messages, I can't seem to edit the message since I keep hearing cell this and cell that. Not sure if I've explained this problem adequately, but would appreciate if any one could tell me what to do to be able to edit all messages instead of some of them. I've never had this issue in JAWS 7 and I tried everything that I know of with no success. Obviously, I was not doing the correct thing and worse yet not sure what to do, so hope some knowledgeable person here understands my question and could kindly offer some assistance with respect to this request.
