Hello Tom;
Well, I've tried different ways to do a search in outlook 2016,
The only way I can get any results is,

1, ctrl+shift+f=advance find,

Now type in a subjectline,
Or, perhaps a few words within the email,
Now press enter to start the search,
Once search is complete,
Press the f6key to view the results. Also, to read a message simply press
enter,
When you want to get out of the list of searches just press, the escape key.

Hope this helps.

Hello Tom,

If you hold down the CTRL key and press tab key twice focus will move to the
list of results.  This is the case with Outlook 2013 but I think should
still apply to outlook 2016.  You can move to the search box using CTRL with
E.  The list of results filter as you type.  you don't need to press enter
key.    

Take care.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Question About Outlook 2016 E-mail Search Function

Hello, everyone.

               

I am trying to search for a particular e-mail in Outlook 2016, and can't get
Jaws to read the screen display to show me what has been found.

 

Here's what I do:

 

When in Outlook, I tab over to "search quiry", and type in what I am looking
for.

 

I then hit enter.

 

My sighted wife says that the contents of the new screen displaying the
search results is visible, but Jaws will not read it.

 

Am I missing a step for performing e-mail searches here?

 

This used to work very nicely.

 

Is there something else I should be doing?

 

I'm using Windows 7, and Jaws 17 here.
