Yes, this is a problem.  Mostly I try to be thorough, and may check some things twice. I have also noticed, in the past, that when there are all-day appointments, things can get even less reliable, so be careful.

Subject: [blindLaw] JAWS and Outlook Calendar

Hello everyone,

For some time now, I’ve noticed that JAWS does not consistently report the correct number of events to me for a given day when I’m viewing my calendar in Outlook. I called FS tech support about this, but they did not have any suggestions other than to try different views and maximize the window, neither of which resolved the issue. Apparently, this is a known issue with JAWS and some versions of Outlook. So I thought I’d see if anyone here has a good strategy for dealing with this. Thanks for any suggestions.

Best,

Angie
