I'm using Outlook and can move a message while within the message or from
the message list. Is it really different in OE?

Please don't take this badly, but as I know you're a very experienced
computer user, it never even occurred to me that you might be trying to
perform an operation like this from within an open message. consider, for
instance, that you can't copy or move a file in Windows Explorer while you
have the file open-- sure, you can rename it, thus creating a replica of it
under a different name, but you can't literally just move or copy the file.
Same goes for other environments. So I never guessed you might be inside a
message and trying to do that.
Oh, well. Live and learn. It just occurred to me how you could have
thought you could do this: I notice there are a lot of people who like to
open messages in their Inbox, read them, and then go on to the next message
in the list view from there directly by either deleting the open message or
using a keyboard command of some sort. I never do this sort of thing. I
open a message, and before I do anything else (apart from cycling around to
another open application to do something different, I mean, without closing
the email message) I hit escape to close it. So It never occurs to me that
you can perform many operations on an email message from *within* the open
message.
Okay. Glad if it's all okay now.

Ah, but you need to be in the message list, not within the message.
That's how I got it to work.

No Adrian,
It's a standard Move keyboard command for Outlook Express and in other
contexts, too, like Audible Manager. Just Control Shift V. A move files
dialogue should come up. It's really, really standard. I'm just using Wind
XP Home, OE 6, and Jaws 7. But unless there's an "issue," as they say, with
Jaws 8 in this regard (if you're even *in* Jaws 8 when this fails to work),
then something's the matter. Just as control shift b opens the Address
Book, Control shift V puts up the Move dialogue so you can designate the
target folder.
Sorry if it isn't working. Something sounds wrong to me.

That command doesn't do anything on my system. You did mean,
control-shift-v c, right?

Adrian,
Just an idea, but how about trying the standard hotkey command for
moving an OE message into another folder: control Shift V See if this
might sidestep the problem.

I am. It also happens when I skip through messages with alt-right
arrow.
Having identified it, however, it doesn't annoy me. What does trouble
me is
that JAWS 8 is slow to react when I try to save a message into another
folder. In fact, it sometimes does something else, such as try to
forward
the message or take me into help. I'm referring to the procedure where
I
press alt-f, then m for move. Now that's annoying.

I found initially JAWS 8 was fine but when I use it on outlook express
and I
am reading a message I notice upon hitting the delete key I hear the
word
deleted followed by the first word of the text of the new message then
the
new message is read from beginning to end, however every single time I
hit
the delete key I hear the first word of the next message prior to
having the
message read. Anyone else experiencing this? Dana
