From: Raul A. Gallegos To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 21, 2008 08:06 Subject: Re: [blindvista] Strange problem with JAWS 9, and Windows Contacts
All you have to do is open your contacts, do not use the arrow keys, Now, press alt-v, then f to open the folder template dialog box. You will see it's set to contacts template. Press the home key to select the all option. Press enter. and bingo, you can now browse your contacts with any screen reader. We found this bug early in April last year, shortly after Window-Eyes 6.1 was released. It is of course a Microsoft bug which is the reason that other screen reader users also experience this problem.
