[nabs-l] JAWS

Which version of Outlook are you using and which build of JAWS 18?  I have
also had problems since a recent build, Build 2738, of JAWS and Office 2016
through Office 365.  Certainly problems are minimized by more speed and more
memory, but it does seem as though something has gotten more troublesome
recently.  I have reverted to JAWS 17 when I know I am going to be doing a
good deal of work in Outlook, Word or Excel, and the problems are a good
deal less when I do that.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

I think this problem doesn't matter what version of jaws that you have. I 
am running 18 and outlook, they both work fine on my machine.
