Hi Tom,

I am sure you probably are doing this but are you using the 1,2,3, etc. on the number row while holding down the alt key? It will not work with the number key pad. Just to make sure.

Mr. Ed

I made sure the screen was maximized, but Alt 1, 2, and 3 still say unavailable when an e-mail message is open.

Tom Behler

I just tried the key combinations on your message, and on this reply, and alt 1, 2, and 3 don’t work.

I’ll check further, but it almost seems to vary with the message.

It’s very strange.

Hi Tom,

I’m using The current version of Windows 10, Outlook 2016 and the most recent version of JAWS.  These key combos still work for me in an open message that I’ve received.

They, of course and never have, don’t work in an open message that I am creating.

Hello, everyone.

I used to be able to read the various fields in an open Outlook 2016 e-mail message using the alt key, followed by the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc..

This now no longer works.

Whenever I hit these key combinations, I get an “unavailable” message.

Does anyone know if something has changed to no longer make this possible, and is there a work-around?

I also find shif-tabbing through the various fields to be very unreliable.

I’m using Windows 10, Office 365, and the latest build of Jaws 2019 here.

Thank you!

Tom didn’t you say you’re using office 365?  If you are are you sure it didn’t update to 2019?

I am still using office 365 and Jaws 18. I have read the help information and tried what they said. I need to insert a column. The help screen said to Right click on the cell or column and then go to insert. I check entire column and press ok. It inserts a column, but instead of where I want it, it inserts a blank at the first column. Any ideas? Inserting used to be so easy, don’t see why they think they must fix what ain’t broke. Linda

Hi,

I am trying to work with a spreadsheet for our ACB members and I don't have time for this silliness. I am using JAWS 18 and Office 365.

Problem: I need to edit the contents of a cell. I press F2 to open the edit screen. JAWS will not speak the contents of the cell as I move around in it. In one example, a person moved down the street and the only thing I needed to change was the house number but since I couldn't hear the contents of the cell when editing, I was forced to type the whole new address. Thanks for your help.

I’m also finding some inconsistency. However, you can pretty much rely on reaching each of those fields by holding down the alt key and pressing the number twice quickly, e.g., alt and 2-2. These are the keystrokes for not just reading, but actually landing in, the field you want. Not ideal, but they enable you to move around a message pretty fast.

Hi,

I went to my documents folder and entered on the properties tab. I went through all six tabs and found nothing about size or number of folders. I am using W10 and Jaws 19. I went to my documents folder through this pc.

What am I doing wrong?

Mr. Ed

Hi.

You can place your cursor on the folder or library, hit alt-enter and open the properties box. This will tell you how many files and folders it contains, the size in kilobytes, etc.
