Thanks Steve. I'm not using Outlook 2003 myself, and I had posted this query for a client. I worked with her this morning, and now have her successfully using the View menu Arrange By submenu to sort

Thanks, Kimber. I was hoping for some slick hotkey that would take me to the column header controls. I know I can do that in "add or remove programs", for example (allows me to sort installed programs

Does anyone know an easy way to change the email sort order in Outlook 2003? The list view of emails has headers for each column, and a sighted user can just click on the column header to sort by that

Hi Carolyn. I'm afraid this got buried in the discussion thread regarding the virtual ribbon. The MS Outlook shortcut to check names is CONTROL + K. It will pop up with a list of names from your conta

I train people on the use of JAWS. Some of my clients come to me with a rudimentary knowledge of a few of the MS ribbon UI shortcuts, as they have previously used Window Eyes or NVDA. But their traini

Follow the link in the original post, it takes you to a web page. Then tab to the FS Cast 113 link, and use the application context menu. There's an option to "save target as". That will download the

Steve: THANK YOU! Excellent post and very helpful. I see the same behavior that you describe, while playing with this in Word 2010. ALT+N takes you to the file name field, except when focus is in the

Hi all. Is there a quick way to get JAWS to read the location (i.e., library name or filesystem path) while in a "File Save" dialog? Some apps use the "Documents" library as the default. Other apps ha

It appears that SHIFT + CONTEXT MENU opens a context menu that contains a superset of the functionality available from a plain CONTEXT MENU. That is to say, SHIFT + CONTEXT MENU gives you all the func

Just to confirm, this works for me. The steps are as follows: 1. While in the list of messages (in your inbox or some other folder), arrow down to the message that you'd like to add contact info from.

Cool, neat trick. Thanks for posting it. BTW, I just went through the keyboard manager for Outlook 2010 and didn't see a hotkey for adding sender to contacts, so I don't think there is a way to do thi

Those are good clarifications, thanks for posting them. Regarding a more accessible compiler, one option would be to use the Cygwin package, which provides gcc, gdb, and make: command-line compilers,

I do SHIFT + TAB back to the From field. Once I get there, I hit the application menu and select the "add sender to outlook contacts" option. It works, but it'd be nice if there was a better way. I im

I'll start by saying I don't know of any off-the-shelf graphing solutions for visually impaired users. So everything that follows is sort of "what if" hypothetical stuff, just thinking out loud. Prese

It sounds like you are writing a program in C or C++ and I'm guessing it is what Visual Studio calls a "console application". If that assumption is correct, then when you run the program, it opens a c

There are 3 reasons to add a script as a user setting (instead of a shared setting), at least 3 that I can think of. 1. If you have more than one user on your computer and they all want different scri

It depends on which you want to change. Your specific settings, or the shared settings for all users on your computer. -Paul

Jinx! LOL. -Paul

Try this: 1. Hit the Windows key, then open All Programs. 2. Arrow down (or use 1st key nav) until you hear "JAWS 16.0 closed". Right arrow to open. 3. Arrow down until you hear "Explore JAWS closed".

Thanks, Mario. I like your idea of a sort of, "let's learn how to program - using JAWS scripting". It makes a lot of sense to teach basic programming, using JSL as an example. The idea has a lot of me
