Re: [JAWS-Users] Address Book VS. Contacts List In Outlook 2016?

Mike: This is good to know. For whatever reason, I have always found the address book, accessed via control shift B., to be easier to navigate and work with than the contacts list, accessed by control 3. I've found this even in earlier versions of Outlook, such as Outlook 2007 and Outlook 2010.
