Hello Annette,  

The way you add columns is to start in your list of messages.  If one of
them is selected then use CTRL with spacebar to remove the selection.  Press
the application key and see if you have an "add column" menu choice.  I am
using Outlook 2013 so it might be slightly different.  If there is no Add
column option use the Change View menu choice.  If you have an Add Column
menu item then after pressing enter key you are in the dialog box you want
to be in.  If you press enter on the View Settings option then find the
Columns button and use spacebar.  This puts focus in the same dialog box as
if you use the Add Column menu choice.  Tab to the Select Available Columns
>From combo box and either use down arrow key or press A until you get to All
Mail Items.  Use tab key once to the list of available mail items and find
the BCC list item.  Tab to the Add button and press spacebar.  Tab to the
Show These Columns In This order list and select the BCC item.  You can then
tab to a Move Up button that can be used to move that header up in the list
for when it is shown as a header.  Use the Move Up and Move Down buttons
after selecting BCC in the list until it is positioned where you want it.
Use the OK button.

I hope this works for you.  

Take care.

Hi Brian,

Thanks for that info.  I know how to use the Alt and number combinations to
see what is in the header.  But having to do that on 200 messages a day
would eat up a huge amount of my time every day.  The search information
will be useful at some point, but I don't think it will do anything for me
on a daily basis.  I was hoping that maybe there was some way to get JAWS to
announce something about the BCC line out in the list of messages in the
Inbox.  I'll have to check and see if there is a way to add the BCC field as
one of the columns.  

Does anyone know if when messages are listed in the Inbox if they are marked
in a different color or have some type of flag when you are a BCC recipient?

Annette

Hello Annette,

In Outlook 2013 when I use Alt with the number 6 while in an open message
the BCC field contents are read.  I think it should be the same with Outlook
2010.  You can also use CTRL+E while in Outlook and type in bcc followed by
a colon and part of your name and you should get a list of all messages with
the string of text you search for in the BCC field.  Unfortunately my system
has Windows 8 and it doesn't use all the indexed areas in searches as
Windows 7 does.  However, try just pressing the Windows key and in the
search box type BCC followed by a colon and part of your Email address  as
it would show in the BCC field.  Use down arrow to see if you find any
results.  You might also try using kind:email then a space and bcc followed
by a colon and followed immediately with the string of text.  

I hope one of those ways work for you.  

Take care.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Outlook 2010 BCC information

Hi All,

 

I am using Outlook 2010 and JAWS 12.  Does anyone know of a way to get JAWS
to automatically tell me when my name is in the BCC field of a message?  I
Know that I can manually obtain that info from the header of the message
when I open it, but it would be way to time consuming if I have to do this
for every single message.  

 

Thanks,

Annette
