Hi Esther and Anna, I have taken a long time before I replied, as I have been trying and trying to get this to work. I now have it working, and yes I should have said, I am using "tiger". The "VO H H" has no sort option, and yes "VO Shift backslash" does not work for me. I found that I first h

It's absolutely no problem. :) I just thought I was doing something wrong. I had hoped I could find a solution to get voiceover to say "unread" while going through my-messages table. :) Christina On Sep 24, 2009, at 11:49 AM, Woody Anna Dresner wrote: > > Hi Christina, > > I'm sorry. You

Hi Christina, I'm sorry. You're right; Status isn't in the Columns menu. I found the menu and that it controlled which columns were shown, and I assumed Status was there without actually looking for it. You know what happens when you assume. sorry about that. Best, Anna --~--~-~-

Hi STan, That's right, the command is VO-Vertical LIne. I just wrote it the other way because I figured more people know where the Backslash is then where the vertical line is. best, Anna On Sep 24, 2009, at 10:14 AM, Stan wrote: > > Hi Anna, > Sorry, the sort keys, will not work on my k

Hi Frank, If you don't care about seeing status - unread, replied, etc. - go to the View menu with Control-F2, V, Enter. Arrow down to Columns and press Enter. Check or uncheck columns to show or hide them by pressing Enter. If you want to keep status on screen but don't want to hear it al

Hi all, I have two really simple but frustrating issues with the Mail program in SL that I cannot figure out with VO. Firstly, when I arrow up and down in my list of messages the unread ones start with saying "unread" and the read ones start with saying "blank". How can I stop the read messages fr
