A QUICK ACCESS TO ATTACHMENTS USING MICROSOFT OUTLOOK BY: JOHN JUSTICE Outlook offers an easy way to view, read or save attachments. This process works on any attachment, text or audio. 1. Open the e-mail message in Microsoft Outlook. 2. SHIFT+TAB to the list of attachments. That list will include the message itself. 3. Use the right arrow to highlight the attachment to be read or listened to 4. Press Enter to activate whichever app will be used to access that attachment.
With audio attachments, the default player is Windows Media Player. For Word documents, Outlook will open a Word based document in that environment automatically. If the attachment is in text format, Notepad is the default application. NOTE: This process will not automatically save the attachment. It will simply open it for you. To save the attachment, press CONTROL+S and follow the prompts. FORWARDING AN E-MAIL ATTACHMENT USING MICROSOFT OUTLOOK Outlook will still show the list of attachments on a separate screen. Focus on that screen and press Escape to close the display. To forward a message including the attachment, 1. Return to the list of messages. 2. Press CONTROL+F to activate the Forwarding option 3. Type the destination e-mail address 4. Tab to the message body and press ALT+S to send the message.

What email client are you using? Mr. Ed -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Cristóbal Sent: Saturday, December 24, 2016 10:33 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Recent Jaws issue with typing and focus jumping around Hello list, So I dont know what I may have done, but for the last few days, I have been experiencing an incredibly annoying issue with Jaws and composing Outlook messages. When I begin to type, the first few letters are spoken by jaws even though Ive always had this setting to echo speech off. The more frustrating thing is that focus will jump around and what I type is spread out all over the document. This is especially annoying when Im working off a template text and have to go hunt for the stray letters. The thing is, if I type the first couple of letters and then erase them, everything works fine. I have to believe that in all my typing, I must have accidentally enabled some sort of odd setting since this has only been a recent issue and I dont experience it in a standard Word document. Only in Outlook messages. My version of Outlook is 2010 and my messages are set to HTML. I am using the most recent version of Jaws 18. Does anyone have an idea of what may be causing this issue or what setting I might try to change to fix it? That or is there some sort of set to default setting in Outlook for composing messages?
