Adrian:

I'm still not having much luck here.

In my version of Outlook 2016, again using Office 365 and Windows 7, I
cannot find auto-numbering to uncheck, by pressing the right arrow key one
time after unchecking auto-bulleting.

The option just does not seem to be there.

I think I'm going to have to get sighted assistance on this issue, although
I'll be happy to try other suggestions.

Tom,

I hope David Whitehead won't mind if I re-post his instructions with some
slight modifications. I notice his original didn't include the right arrow
step  to reach auto numbering. I'm working in Outlook 2010, but it looks as
though the steps haven't changed from 2010 to 2016 because David's 2016
instructions work on my system. One question that remains for me is whether
it's necessary to tab over to "Okay." I did so just in case, but it would be
nice if we didn't have to.

1. From the File tab, click Options. Alt+f, t.
2. Select Mail and click the Spelling and Autocorrect button.
You can press letter "m"=mail, or down-arrow to mail. Do not press enter.
Tab. Enter on Spelling and Autocorrect button 3. In the Proofing section,
click AutoCorrect Options.
Tab enter on, AutoCorrect Options
4. Click the AutoFormat As You Type tab.
5. In the Apply as you type section, un-check Automatic bulleted lists, then
right arrow once and check Automatic numbered lists.

Ah, ok, Adrian.

You may be right.

When I get some time later tonight, I'll give things a try again, especially
with regard to your latest suggestion, and will let you know how things turn
out.

I appreciate your and everyone's patience!

Tom, I'm guessing you're missing a step in David's instructions. When you
land on the bullets checkbox, don't tab. Instead, right arrow once. Then
automatic numbering turns up. Not exactly intuitive, I agree.

Hello, everyone.

 
I have tried the steps sent to me by Kimsan, David, and Joseph, and still
can't get auto-numbering to be turned off in Outlook 2016 e-mails.

I am not sure if this is a Jaws issue, because when I get to the
auto-numbering as you type options, I can find auto-bulleting which I have
unchecked, but can't find auto-numbering.

 

Again, I must point out that I'm using Outlook 2016 with Office 365 and
Windows 7 here.

 

This is extremely frustrating, and should not be this difficult.
