[nfbcs] Finding separators in Outlook Express

[Rasmussen, Lloyd]

If you looked at the separators in the HTML, I would guess that they are being represented by the <hr /> horizontal rule tag, perhaps with some attributes. I don't know enough JAWS yet to say whether it has a keystroke to search for separators. If the message was important enough you could save it as HTML and process that file in a web browser.

Greetings:

Use the search function in Outlook, invoked by pressing F4. This will not
work, however, if the message is in the HTML format inasmuch as the row of
dashes is not used there. I have found there is no convenient way to jump
from one message to another short of copying and pasting the entire thing
into Notepad or Word. Sorry.

Cordially,

Curtis Chong

I get long chains of emails within one email at work, and it would be handy
to be able to skip to the next one in the chain, which is usually denoted by
a row of dashes.  I tried typing -, but Outlook told me there were no
separators.  Is there a way to find a string of dashes within an email?

I am using Outlook Express 2010 and Jaws 17.

Sorry if this is a dumb question everyone else knows the answer to.

Tracy
