Jeff,
I have the Message List reclassed as a Listview, and I get the number of
messages spoken both when the list comes up and when pressing Insert+Tab.
To reclass the Message List, place the PC cursor in the list and press
Insert and the 7 on the number row. The original class has Listview as
part of its name. Tab over to the Assign To listbox and hit l. You can
then arrow down to Listview. Tab over to Add and press Enter or Spacebar.
Then Tab to OK and press Enter or Spacebar. The Message List should now
speak properly.
