Hi Dave,
I do have a couple of folders which are large, my recipe folder in
particular.
When I go through the folder to move particular recipes into a word file and
such I then use alt+tab to go back to where I was. Now and then JAWS forgets
where I was and it might be nice to know that I was on message 945 so I
could get back there fairly quickly.
Other than this I probably do not need to know this valuable information.

Cy,

I'm just curious as to why you need to know the xxx of yyy information in 
the folder view. Since I use first-letter navigation to find folders,I've 
never wanted to know where in the overall list a particular folder resides.

Am I missing a particular "neat trick" that helps us by knowing that 
information?

Adrian,
On my HP, W7 64 bit, JAWS 11, Office 2007 the insert+numpad 3 gives me the
number of messages in the folder.
I really do wish I could find "where" in the folder I am such as 135 of 402.
Insert+tab only gives me what insert+ up arrow does, no numbers.

Two thoughts for how to obtain this information.

First, I just tried this on Outlook 2003 and it worked. While at the message
list in a folder, switch to the JAWS cursor and go to the bottom line. Here
the number of messages is read.

2. This doesn't work on my machine, but since insert-3 has stopped working
on yours, maybe the change makes this one work instead. Insert-tab ought to
tell you not only the number of messages in a folder, but also where you're
positioned on that list. I wish this worked here.

Running Jaws 12 with outlook 2007.
I use to hit insert numpad 3 to hear amount of messages in the folder I was
in.
Now it does not work.
All I changed was the scheme. It has been changed back, but insert does not
work.
Any helpful suggestions?
