It never occurred to me to do anything except to go to the website and find
the links. I have several publications in My Favorites although I must admit
that basically, I use Newsline to look through the book review section of
the New York Times on Sunday and to look at any important news story in Long
Island's newsday, if I receive an interesting headline in an email from the
paper. But it would never occur to me to do anything complicated to read
material from Newsline. Additionally, I've discovered that sometimes, the
publications they have don't include all of the material that's actually in
the issues or sometimes, only partial articles are there.

That's due to the fact that Freedom Scientific insists on bundling FSReader,
its own daisy reader with its installations.

NFB Newsline, when it detects a Jaws screen-reader in use, won't let you
read daisy files in another program except to use FS Reader.

If you want to use your Outlook program to do it, you'll need to unload Jaws
and use an alternate screen-reader.
