Hi Rod, I appreciate the advice but my finances may be cut shortly. Having to take the cheaper options for now.
I just read that here it is £64 a year for office 365. Which isn't bad monthly. I'll keep it in mind for the future though.

As I'm always saying, the advantage of Office 365 is that Microsoft is always improving accessibility, and, of course, as long as your logged into your Microsoft account, you are always registered. I subscribe annually, which gives you two months for free, but even monthly gives you a lot of resources. Anyway, I'll get off my soap box and just wish you well with what you have.

As usual it's a long story. Smiles I bought it and had problems verifying it. I then did and was put through to the techy department of Microsoft for them to install it via remote access. After trying for 2 and a half hours yesterday, I was cut off. Grin. That's the main reason I'm calling the disability help desk. I did notice those selections and did try to alter them but maybe as it's a sort of trial version those catagories might not work. Microsoft employees seem puzzled and perturbed when I explain I am a blind person. Somehow it doesn't sink in right away. Silence is often the first reaction from them. Thanks a million for the help and it is appreciated.

I'm using Office 365 which changes regularly. If you use the View tab, there are view settings in there for displaying columns. This is what you must do if you want just the sender, subject and date. And then there is the sorting by whichever field. I'm sure the Disability Answer Desk will help. Of course, I don't call them unless it's something major. Smile Another hot key is Ctrl-Shift-I which takes you to the inbox and seems to straighten out the display. The Outlook Windows seem quite fluid, adjusting to the data which must be displayed. And, yes, I've spent some good time playing with the display. However, I always seem to get things straightened out eventually. I wish I could say more except to keep at it and you'll get there eventually too.

I spent ages on trying to show just the subject line but no matter what I tried nothing worked. I'll try caling Microsoft disability help desk later today. They might help? Have a great day.

Also, pressing Alt-v, and then X is the key combination to reset normal view settings.

It reads everything like normal, not normal, attachment no attachment. All that extraneous stuff. Just the subject line would be brilliant.lol Sincerely, John -----Original Message----- From: Talk <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Rod Hutton via Talk Sent: 25 September 2019 15:15 To: Window-Eyes Discussion List <[email protected]> Cc: Rod Hutton <[email protected]> Subject: RE: help with outlook 2016 Hi John, Yes, I see what you mean. My instructions are a bit old and so the step you are working on is not right. At this point, after installing the Outlook Enhance app, you can just close Outlook, reboot, and you should be good to go. If not, you can let me know.

When I press alt, f, t, a twice. I don't get where it should be? It reads browse. I guess I'm doing something wrong but can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.
