List, if you want to use Outlook, please read the Jaws help topics (insert key plus F2 pressed twice quickly while in the outlook program In box) for using Outlook. It is similar or rather, outlook express is similar to Outlook and there are some rather significant differances in using outlook. I am using both programs but am about to switch to Windows 7 on both computers which means I will have to use Outlook on both computers as Outlook Express no longer exists if you use Windows 7 as your operating system. I am still using Outlook 2003 but may have to move up to Outlook for 2007 or more likely Outlook 2010 when it is fully supported by the folks at Freedom Scientific. Again, please take advantage of the help systems in using Jaws by pressing that insert key plus F1 key at any point while using Jaws to help explain the page/window you are using at that point in time. There are usually links to jaws short cut keys plus other helpful information or links to other help topics.

John,I can confirm what you write here. In addition to the control-d combination for deleting within a message, the delete key works when the focus is on the message in the list. But again, JAWS doesn't verbalize "message deleted," atleast not by default. _____ From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of john R. Vaughn Sent: Saturday, July 31, 2010 5:20 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: silent delete Dorothy, the key to delete a message in Outlook is control key plus letter D. And for some reason, to my recollection, jaws has never said "deletemessage" when you delete a message as it does in outlook express or windowsmail, the Windows Vista replacement for Outlook express. Not sure why this is, but as a long time user of both Outlook and OE think this is the way it is.

Subject: silent delete dear list, on my old laptop using Outlook express, if I delete something Jaws says delete, however on my windows 7 dell 64 bit using ms outlook,the delete key is silent, it is not my keyboard since I have changed that. surely for the latest version of office Microsoft,or Jaws would not have overlooked speaking it, would it be Jaws fault or microsofts? many thanks dorothy
