Hi Ricky,

What are you trying to do?  The key command you gave is for inserting a text
box, not text, into a message.  If you are sending a plain text message, the
command is disabled because textboxes are not supported in plain text
messages.  If your message is formatted as HTML, then the command is
available but I'm not sure it is what you want.

Text boxes are sort of containers for positioning some text. You can read

Subject: [VICUG-L] ENABLING AN OPTION IN OUTLOOK 2016 WINDOWS TEN MESSAGE

Hi

With apologies to George Bell and Pratik Patel, who responded to me offlist,
for repeating myself here, using Outlook 2016 with Windows ten, apart from
copying and pasting into a blank message, I found an option that allows one
to insert text into a message body, it is alt-N plus x but it is disabled
and I tried both space bar and enter to enable it but no change so is there
any way to enable this, seems like it's the default? BTW I am still using
Window-Eyes and quite a number of the keystrokes for Jaws which I have been
given by people on this list also work perfectly with Window-Eyes too so I'd
call these universal keystrokes, maybe they are general Windows keystrokes
though obviously there are others working only with Jaws.

Thanks again.
