Re: [JAWS-Users] WINDOWS 10, IS IT WORTH UPGRADING NOW?
I've spent a month with win 10, starting with a dev copy and then a fully copy on my laptop, and I'm going back to, and staying with windows 7. Of all the things I disliked, having no control of updates was at the top of the list, closely followed by Edge, and also the lack of decent accessibility options for low vision users. I imagine JAWS will catch up win 10, but it already works just fine with Win 7.

Re: [JAWS-Users] question about exporting contacts to outlook?
Ask someone on the list, but I think that if you go Alt F and go through the prompts, there are import and export. You would be exporting from Century Link and Importing to Outlook, which of course you know. I think that the pathways are in Alt F. What I don't know is the process to establish the destination to Century Link and be sure that it arrives in Outlook intact. Good computer guy only got my addresses and not my distribution lists. We knew that going in, that probably they would not transport. I did have my addresses backed up in a document file so that worst case, we could re-enter all of them by hand. I wonder how many of the 125 or so I would have found to be expendable all of a sudden.

No, I don't think it's going to be a problem. I'm just not sure how to export my contacts from century link, and import them into Outlook. That's what I'm looking for.
