If there is a particular thread that interests you, you would press the right arrow key to expand the message group and expanding will show all the messages in this particular thread. To change this setting follow the steps below. 1. Press Alt + V for the view menu, but not in an an open message. 2. Press enter on current view or press the letter V. 3.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Recommendation Sought for Accessible
Hi Pete, There are some html editors on both: www.blind-computing.com and www.jaws-users.com for creating web pages, or you can use Microsoft Word as I do, if it is available to you. Word does carry a lot of overhead, but for a text site as I have, it doesn't cause the site to load any slower than a site written in an html editor, not to mention I don't have to learn html code, or learn to use another application. There are some sites where you can get free web-hosting, but they come with strings attached. Better to part with about $5 a month, and be free of those annoyances.

[Blind-Computing] Windows Vista Settings Dealing With Lists
Hello To All; I am assisting a relatively new screen reader/computer user via the phone. He is running Vista 64 bit on a Dell laptop. What I hear while on the desktop or in any other list is the name of the list item followed by the statement Checked or Not Checked. For instance, while using the arrow keys through the desktop icons, it says Recycle bin not checked; WordPerfect Checked; and so on. I have Vista myself and will search through the settings, but if anyone here knows the answer I would appreciate it. I attempted to Google this inquiry but the search terms used yielded no answer. Sure there was just about every other possible answer for problems not our own provided by Google, but no luck locating the info I sought.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Question for Rick Justice about CDEX
I think you should go back to the blind computing page on CdEx and listen to the wealth of tutorials and advice given there on using this program. It does take a little concentration to set up, mainly in determining that you want it to insert track names automatically from the internet database, and specifying where you want your tracks saved. At the moment I suspect they are being saved in the CDEx programs folder. Once set up though CDEx is incredibly easy to use. Basically you insert your CD, wait for the track names to be inserted for you, and then press the F9 key to start the ripping of your cd. That's it really.

[Blind-Computing] networking 2 computers with a wireless router
Hello everyone, I can't seem to figure out how to network 2 computers together using a wireless router. Before, when I networked them through a hard-wired router, it was simple. I just plugged both into the router, went through the My Network Places setup wizard, and was able to let the second computer see my shared documents and print to the printer I had connected to my main computer. I tried to do the same thing with the wireless setup wizard, but I couldn't find the steps to set anything up like I did in the regular network setup wizard. The second computer doesn't see the printer or the main computer. The main computer is hooked directly into the router, the other computer that is hooked up wirelessly can't see my shared folder or the printer. I can't see the wirelessly connected computer either. I also have a 1 terabyte external drive hooked up to my main computer. I'd like to let the second computer see that also. I can see it just fine in My Network Places on my desktop so I figure I got that setup correctly. Both computers are running XP. Please help as the second computer is used by my wife in another room and she has threatened to make me sleep in the dog house if I can't figure it out; and it's getting cold here in Colorado at night!

The first problem I'm having is about 50% of the time when I send a message the message says: send as Unicode, I then tab once and get: send as is, If I continue to tab, it goes between those two choices until I send the message, and then the page goes blank and I have to alt tab back into the inbox window. How can I fix this? The second problem is that quite often when composing a message that I have copied and pasted into a new message I hear the word: cell and just as often in that kind of message it combines all the words into one line. I tried to paste the message into a word document and heard some thing about a table, which leads me to believe that some how the message is in some kind of table. Is there a way to stop Out Look Express from recognizing tables in a message, but not to affect a table that is being sent by attachment in a word document? If I send the message that is reading, cell, to myself it reads without saying the word cell, but the word cell, reappears if I copy and paste it into a new message. Any help in solving these problems would be greatly appreciated. Brian For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Go to control panel Next, go to folder options Then go to view tab Tab to files and folders right arrow to open tree view arrow down to use check boxes to select items - select off Tab to okay and hit enter That will get rid of those checkboxes after things on the desktop, I think that is what you are trying to do, if I understood your question correctly.

He is running Vista 64 bit on a Dell laptop. What I hear while on the desktop or in any other list is the name of the list item followed by the statement Checked or Not Checked. For instance, while using the arrow keys through the desktop icons, it says Recycle bin not checked; WordPerfect Checked; and so on. I have Vista myself and will search through the settings, but if anyone here knows the answer I would appreciate it. I attempted to Google this inquiry but the search terms used yielded no answer. Sure there was just about every other possible answer for problems not our own provided by Google, but no luck locating the info I sought.

Re: [Blind-Computing] 2 Out look Express problems
Hi Brian, You need to use an Email cleaning program to clean up all of the HTML crap that comes with information copied from a website page. The overview download link of Email Stripper, an Email cleaning program,, is below. emailStripper is a free program for cleaning the and other formatting characters out of your emails. It will restore forwarded or replied emails back to their original state so they're easier to read. It's simple to use, and best of all it's FREE! http://www.blind-computing.com/e_mail/programs/emailstripper-installer.exe The reason you get Jaws saying cell is because of the HTML language. Also, below are the steps on how to use Email Stripper. 1. Open the Email and press control + F to forward it. 2. Enter to whom you are sending the Email to. 3. Tab to the subject line and press the home/7 key to take the cursor to the beginning of the line 4. Press the delete key to remove any FW: stuff that is in front of the message title. 5. Tab to the edit field. 6. Press the control + A keys to select the whole message. Now , press control + C to copy the whole message to the clipboard. 7. Open the Email Stripper program. 8. Tab 1 time, Jaws will say paste. Press the space bar to paste the message into the Email Stripper program. 9. Shift tab 1 time, Jaws will say strip it. Press the space bar to strip the Email of the computer language crap. 10. Shift tab 1 time, Jaws will say edit. Now you will clean the Email of the rest of the crap. 11. Press control +home/7 keys to take the cursor to the top of the page. 12. Arrow down to the first line of the message and arro up once to give yourself some space if possible. 13. Press the home/7 key to take the cursor to the beginning of the line. 14. Press the control + home/7 keys to select from the cursor to the top of the page and press the delete key to clean the top of the message. 15. Press the control + end/1 keys to take the cursor to the bottom of the page. 16. Arrow up to the last line of the message and arro down once or twice to give yourself a little room. 17. Press the home/7 key to take the cursor to the beginning of the line. 18. Press control, shift, + end/1 keys to select the text from there to the bottom of the page and press the delete key to remove the crap at the bottom of the message. 19. You can proofread the message if you like to make sure it is the way you want it. 20. Shift tab and Jaws will say copy. Press space bar to copy the message. 21. Press Alt + F4 to close the Email Stripper program after you have copied the message. 22. You should be back to your original message. Now press control + A to select everything here and press delete to erase that message because you are going to put a new message in here. 23. Press the control + V keys to paste the message you had cleaned up earlier using the Email Stripper program. 24. Now you can send as usual. Brian, I know this sounds like a lot of steps but, after you get the hang of it, it is really simple. Trust me. People will totally appreciate the fact that you are sending them clean Emails. I am not quite sure that I have answered all of your questions, but this much typing has quickened my visit to Doctor's Phils couch! LOL I hope this helped to some degree. Take care.

Re: [Blind-Computing] 2 Out look Express problems
Pretty sure the first one is due to when you reply to a message in another text encoding, it might reuse it, and on the format menu, there's a submenu for encoding, and the top/default one should be alright. Also, although my outlook express is set to generally use plain text, if I reply to an HTML mail, it'll sometimes try use HTML as well, and for that one, on the format menu, the two options for rich text and plain text seem to be usable to turn this off, but I sometimes seem to have to alternate between them to sort it out, so often enough, Alt + O, then R to turn on rich text, and then Alt + O, and then X to enforce plain text formatting will sort this out, and this won't affect attachments as such.
