hi, rosland. thanks for all that and going to all that trouble for me, a huge thanks.going to alt to in the normal way to get to our address book doesn't work for him, that's what makes me think that there is maybe some settings to be made to o,e before it's easier for us to use as vip.
my friend is going to join access uk mailing list I told him about the lists that I was on and that's the one he chose to join, it's such a shame he didn't even know about such lists. I suggested that he joined the vip students list as it is for beginners like himself and told him how I've found it very good also how much I'd learnt from the list, but you can only tell folk.
thanks again Susan susan----- Original Message ----- From: "Roslyn Allman" <roslynallman@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi Susan,Another way of reaching your address book when using OE is by going to toolsand arrowing down to address book.Another thing I recently found out about OE is that there was a setting set on my computer, I have no idea where though, you would have to ask somebodymore computer literate than me to help you find this one, that made jaws read out that an email was read even if it wasnt open. Sometimes when Ifirst go into my inbox I would scroll through just to see who my new mail isfrom and this setting said that any email you landed on for a number of seconds was registered as read even if you did not actually open it. This might be handy for your friend to get checked out as I did not know this setting was there until I started missing out on some personalimportant mails as I thought they were already open and got the I.T. Trainerfrom NCBI to check it out. Something I wouldn't have thought about until it happened to myself.This setting might not even be checked on your friends computer but may save them a lot of trouble further down the line if they got it checked out now.Roslyn----- Original Message ----- From: "Susan Curry" <SusanCurry@xxxxxxx>To: <vicsireland@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, April 25, 2008 2:06 PM Subject: [vicsireland] classic and the desk topHi folks, Can any one help me please? my friend who is not on the list has asked me to ask the list if they could help him set his desk top to classic and any thing else that will help him. he is using jaws 9, with vista. also, when he goes in to outlook express he can't find his address book, does any one know how to get this please? many thanks best wishes Susan
