Hi Lenny, Try 1 of the following:
From: David Bailes Hi Tara, the option to send a page or link can be unavailable if your mail program is not the default program for all protocols. To make sure that it is: 1. open the default programs page of the control panel. 2. tab to the set your default programs link and open it. 3. tab to the list of programs, and select your mail program, which in your case is windows mail. 4. tab to the set this program as default button, and press it. This may fix your problem, though I've read of cases when it hasn't. David. From: Mike B. Hi David, In my case this does not work. Would you have any other ideas?! It's not really a big deal but, it just has my curiosity peaked as to what is causing this issue! Take care. Mike From: David Bailes Hi Mike, second attempt to make send page/link by e-mail available. You have to be using an admin account for this. 1. Open the default programs page. 2. tab to the set program access and computer defaults link, and open it. 3. Say yes to the user account dialog. 3. The set program access and computer defaults dialog opens. The intial focus is a custom radio button which is checked, although jaws does not read this. Tab to the next control which is an outline button collapsed. Press spacebar to press this button which changes it to expanded. 4. There are now a number of controls following this button. Tab to the windows mail radio button, and press spacebar to check it. 5. press enter to press the default ok button. David.
