Re: instructions adding in winmail
Mark, Are you trying to add contacts from scratch? You are right that there can be a number of things that are one-time setup that are peculiar since the People app and the Mail App are separate. One of those is, if you have multiple e-mail accounts, you need to set one as default on which new contacts will be added (though you can shift to any other as a one-time exercise or change the default if you have a batch of new contacts you want to add). It would be helpful to know where you're getting stuck and what it is you're trying to accomplish at that moment in time.

Re: excel questions
Lisle, Ted (CHFS DMS)
A straight range would also work, if there are any values in that range at all. That always worked for me when I was figuring grades.

I work for the federal govt and we have a web-based application for time keeping -- entering vacation time or sick time etc. Although I can log on with jaws 18, once in the application none of the links work. At first I thought it was a problem with the app itself. But once I switched back to jaws 17, everything worked perfectly. Anyone seen anything like this? -- Kimberly

I always recommend The Old reader. www.theoldreader.com It’s a web based RSS service. I have it set as my homepage. I hank the first 100 feeds are free, but for more or if you want more features, it’s $2.00 a month or $30.00 a year. I choose to pay and support the service. It also works with Feedller Pro on iOS. Thus allowing for cross-platform synchronicity. There are keyboard commands and is fully accessible with Jaws.

Since then, it’s been running much smoother; however, another suggestion was to turn off the autocorrection, which I did and it also ran smoothly. I’m a terrible speller so I had to turn it back on lol, but when I did, the problems I’m experiencing are ones I addressed previously where it will split words up and add blank lines when the words are split; however, it doesn’t do it as much.

Hi Robin and Everyone,
That is Exactly what I do. I do not have the auto
correct on, because I do not like the interruption while I am typing, and do not
want to figure out where I am in my thoughts and words. However, I do not send
or save anything without doing a spell check, with the (insert F 7). I am a
pretty good speller, but a fast typist. In fact, I never thought about this,
until you said it, but I have learned from listening to the spelling.
Blessings and All the Very Best, Pat

Re: editing a draft in windows live mail
Ryan, How you receive your messages should have nothing to do with drafts being saved in the Drafts folder. As an aside, and I think it needs to be said as a general point, it is rude to ask for help in public, in a forum where others may be experiencing the same problem or problems and be helped by the answers, and immediately request private responses. I won't do that, period. If you need to turn on digests or to follow your own single thread rather than a digest via the web interface that's what you should be doing.

Re: Certain web-based applications not working with Jaws 18

For my work, we use Kronos, and lucky for me, they have the lite version available for my machine where I go to get into it, otherwise that's one whose regular interface uses a lot of flash which gets unpredictable to where it will go in the activities section that we don't use instead of letting me punch in, and I wouldn't be able to approve easily. I can't see how much vacation I've earned with the lite one, but at least I don't have to create additional lost time or artificial lateness when help can take a long time to arrive.
