Hi Marilyn, Have you tried Alt + T, for tools, then O for options? If these keystrokes along with control + Shift + O, work, then options is there, Jaws just isn't reading it for some reason. You can give this a try if you haven't already, Open the menu bar with the Alt key, then right arrow to Tools, then press the up arrow twice, after you hear, send and recieve, the next one should be options. Remember, menus can be context sensitive, so if you are in an open message, options will not be available, this holds true for a message sent to you, or a new message you are composing.

Jacob, since I have not memorized a lot of key shortcuts, I I go to the menus such as file, edit, view tools and arrow to the one I want. When I go to tools to find o esp tools, it says send and receive, etc. So I enter the message and go to tools and get address book and its following items. My start menu is still cluttered with too many items but I'm managing on that. So someone mentioned control shift E and that takes me to options. But I still think it is gone from tools menu. This does sound dumb, doesn't it? marilyn ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jacob Kruger" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, January 10, 2010 9:23 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] outlook express options gone : Is this in the main window, in an open message, or any of the other : dialogues? : : For example, while now typing this reply, on the new message's tools menu, : there's no options item, but in the main window it is definitely there. : : Stay well : : Jacob Kruger : Blind Biker : Skype: BlindZA : '...fate had broken his body, but not his spirit...' : : ----- Original Message ----- : From: "Marilyn Walker" <[email protected]> : To: <[email protected]> : Sent: Saturday, January 09, 2010 9:16 PM : Subject: [Blind-Computing] outlook express options gone : : : > Hi, all.
