I only recently was forced to change to a more recent version of Office and I’m still frequently baffled by the unintuitive nature of a lot of it. For example, when the spell check is being run before

A question regarding Outlook 2013 and JAWS 17
Whenever I navigate the list of entries in Contacts, each name is spoken twice. Are others seeing this and do you know if so, whether it’s been reported as a bug to FS? -- Walt Smith - Clearwater, FL
