Thanks to Walt, Flor and Steve. I didn't know about using arrow keys to expand or collapse messages, some day I may find that very helpful.
In the end though, unchecking View Messages by Subject did it. I don't have any idea how that got checked I never even go into the view menu let well alone the sub menus. I had actually tried unchecking that earlier but Jaws 7.0 seemed to refuse to alter the setting though when I went back after your instruction and did it then left and returned to the menu selection it was reported unchecked. I find it disturbing that things seem to mysteriously change in XP Pro. but from time-to-time that seems to happen. Again thanks for your trouble.
