hello;
if your wanting to add an email address to your contacts using outlook2016, try 
the following;

1, enter on the message which has the contact's email address,

2, now press the keystroke,
ctrl+shift+y=copy item to dialog,

3, press the letter "c" until you hear contacts and press enter,

note a screen will come up with all the pertinate information, person's name, 
email address, and, you can add to any of the edit fields, if you are satisfied 
with the information, you can simply press, alt+s=save, now your placed back 
into the message.
hope this helps.
I believe this will work for earlier versions of outlook.

Hello Mary:

J-Say is a British program that has been around for years, a wrap-around Dragon 
Natural Speaking, designed for people with limited or no hand mobility.  I had 
to learn it years ago in order to teach a younger blind person with Multiple 
Sclerosis and was surprised how well it works.  You can indeed give commands to 
the computer or dictate to it, it accommodates different accents, even 
understood perfectly my Cuban-accented English.

Having said that, I still would not use it unless you have trouble typing; it 
requires patience and with the advent of Cortana and the rapid updates to all 
that new Windows technology, I would go that route instead.

As far as J-Dictate, I have no idea, never used it.

Regards,

Humberto

I’m guessing this question might be seen as a bit too general to be of interest 
to the list. So please feel free to reply privately if you want. I don’t want 
to clog the list with stuff folks don’t care about. I am curious about the J 
dictate and J say. I read the blurb on Brian‘s website. I certainly don’t need 
to control my entire computer via voice. But there are aspects of it that sound 
like they could be rather useful. I mean, if you can really use natural 
language to do all sorts of stuff, finding things changing settings etc., 
without having to memorize all the stuff that goes with that in terms of 
keyboarding and what keystroke does work, it could be kind of nice. Anyway, 
please do feel free to reply off list at the address I will put right here. I 
guess I’m looking for Star Trek. Smile.

If the document comes up in Web Layout, just press Escape and it should return

Re: [JAWS-Users] word docx to notepad txt

[patti]

What about pressing F12 to save as?

I'm not sure which version of Word you are using.  But in most cases, there is 
a "Save As" option under the File menu.  When you press that option, it gives 
you a list of choices, one of which is  a .txt format.  You will probably be 
warned about losing some of the configuration details, but the text will be 
saved.

If you have Spanish set as the current voice profile's primary language, when 
switching to English with CTRL+WINDOWS+L menus and virtual buffer information 
continue to be read in Spanish, but book or page content itself should be read 
in English if you have language detection disabled. As a workaround in case of 
a bug on this, try creating a specific voice profile with an English variant 
set as the primary language, and switch to it when needed by pressing 
CTRL+JAWS+S.

Just press the Alt to open the virticle menu, go to more sub menu, and go to

You can go to the store on that page, and just type in Just Read, and that

Just have that install to Chrome, go back to the extensions page, and make sure
