Since I last wrote, I shut down my computer, went outside and washed my very muddy tandem bike, came back and booted up, went into Outlook and tried to send a new e-mail. It is now functioning just as you describe below which is useless to me. I don't know, for example, how far down the "T" entries Trump sits. So, I can't send him a note. Oh well, he probably doesn't like blind Canadians anyway. He probably thinks we get too many grants from our Canadian government and have an unfair advantage over blind Americans.

For me at least, Jaws doesnt announce the names of contacts, but they are being cycled through. I email a lot of the same people for my business and have learned the pattern of how they come up when typing out their names. The letter M and then arrow down for Maria X, Y or Z for example. This still occurs. Again though, Jaws just isn't announcing the changes. Either way though, it is annoying and frustrating as I often now have to use the to or CC or BCC buttons to go into my address book when I want to insert multiple emails or if there is a long list of names with the same starting sequence of letters. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Reed Sent: Wednesday, September 27, 2017 12:31 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Updated JAWS 18 When I am in the TO: field, I type the first letter of a name. With previous versions of JAWS, the first name beginning with that first letter in my autocomplete list would be spoken. If I was to hit the down-arrow key, the next name in the list would be spoken. I could down-arrow through the list until I found the name I wanted. When I hit the tab key, the name would be inserted in to the TO: field and I could begin typing the next to-name and repeat the process for this second name. None of this is working with the new release of JAWS. After I have typed that first letter and hit the down-arrow key, I hear a beep; indicating that I can't down-arrow through the list. So, it isn't that JAWS just isn't announcing it.
