Thanks, I will try this when Forms Mode is not acting correctly. FS does
not seem too motivated to fix the modified Outlook Express scriptts to work
with Windows Live Mail. I guess they bow to corporations and government
agencies using Outlook. I should just install Thunderbird, load the user
created scripts, and forget this fiasco!

hi there, lots of things even I didn't say about jaws with windows live
mail. I have not used any other email clients as I started learning email
quite late. Well I knew how to do it at school but at that time I didn't
have internet at home. lol But alittle tip for those who have the issue
about jaws not entering into a message. When that does happen what you
can do is hold your jaws key down and press the letter Z that's Z for
zebra! Jaws will say "use vertural pc curser off" note I have not tryed
this with out being in the body of the message so I don't know if it works
when say tabing from the subject line to the message. But as I was saying
do that command if you can't type in the body of that message and you
should be able to type with out any problem! Note very important! when you
have sent your message remember to turn the virtual curser back on!
Because if you go to a message to read it and hit enter on that message
and say you want to arrow around well you will get no feedback until you
have turned it back on. I'll admit when I 1st started using windows live
mail and incounted this issue I was really stuck and had to do alot of
shift tabing and tabing to finally get into the message to type away. And
it could be a long process or a short one. and just by chance I pulled
this keystroke from memory and it hasn't let me down yet!
The reason I am writing about this is because it might happen to someone
else and if they was like me and completly stump and didn't have a clue
what to do well I hope this keystroke will come in handy for all you
people!
I know it did for me!
If any one has got any more tips for windows live mail then I would love
to hear them!
I mean that's what part of life is isn't it? For people to help each
other!
Many Thanks.
Daniel

Yes, I get that as well on my Windows 7 computer. I also get annoyed
that it does not announce autocompletion canidates in address fields,
several of the scripts, Alt + 1 through 6, to get to header fields do
not work, the Folder pane does not accept first character navigation,
and sometimes it refuses to go into forms mode when composing mail. And
all of these annoyances are using JAWS 10! The JAWS 11 scripts are so
bad, I have to switch back to version just to read mail!

Hi everyone, I subject line says it all. Let me explain. I was just
wondering has anyone notice this? I don't know if its a Jaws issue or a
wlm issue but hear it goes. Basicly when I am looking at a message say
for example in this mailing list, and I want to go onto the next one. I
would hit alt then left arrow to move to the next unread message and
jaws moves to it. But hear is the slight problem sometimes or quite a
lot I can't define how offten it happens because its very ramdom but
jaws will focus on the contact button so then I have to shift tab to
hear the message. I don't know if its a problem for some people but
sometimes I find it a little fustrating. Just cureious if anyone has
notice this as well.
Many Thanks
Daniel
