I don't have NVDA set to automatically go into focus mode but if you do, from what you say, it automatically does when you open the address book and are on the search all address book field.

Here is more information: It appears what I did working with the address book had no bearing on the add-on working. I'm running Thunderbird Portable so I updated an old version and tried working with

I just wrote different things in the search dialog, tabbed to the list, and down arrowed through the results. I don't see why playing with the address book would cause any change and I don't

Hi Gene, I still can't get it to work. I even restarted the system and still no go. What did you change in the settings in address book or program that seemed to get it to work? --

Here is an odd thing.  The NVDA Mozilla apps enhancements didn't work when I first tried it in the new version.  I tried it again a little later and now it does.  I was playing with the address
