Re: [JAWS-Users] Recent Jaws issue with typing and focus jumping around

[JAWS-Users] A QUICK ACCESS TO ATTACHMENTS USING MICROSOFT OUTLOOK
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.

[JAWS-Users] A REALLY DECENT SCANNER
Hi group, First of all, Merry Christmas to everyone. Santa brought me a really nice flatbed scanner for Christmas. I didn't know that they were still made. This is an Epson Perfection. It has quite a few advantages over the older scanners I have used. First of all, the Epson Perfection no longer requires separate AC attachments. The disk holding the drivers will install automatically. It adds an icon to your desktop for their built-in software package. However, it works quite well with Open Book. The scanner is small, light and very quiet. For some scanning operations, I still prefer a flatbed scanner over the Pearl Camera. What's more, this thing is now on sale at Best Buy for under $100.

Re: [JAWS-Users] A REALLY DECENT SCANNER
First off, I hope everyone is having a great Christmas day! Aother very nice scanner is Canon's Canoscan 200LDE flat bed scanner. It's small, light, and doesn't need separate AC power, it gets all the power it needs through it's USB cable. And it works well with Open Book which controls it directly, unlike OmniPage which always brought up the scanner's user interface. When you tell Open Book to aquire a page, the scanner starts scanning with no further input from you. Very nice! Cheers!
