Yep, I got another idea, but this would only work while you are in this
list box. Window-Eyes has a cursoring dialog box which you can define
what cursor keys do when you press them. The key itself ist sill passed
to the application, but Window-Eyes also performs an action. So for
example, normally, when you press up arrow, the line is read, when you
press down arrow, the line is read. You could hack it by changing the
behavior of what happens when you press up or down arrow. You may need
to play with these, but perhaps you can have up and down arrow read
"Line next". You do this by going into the cursoring dialog box and
finding the down arrow and the up arrow entries. In each, change the
action to "line next". Press enter and give it a try and see if it
works. Remember though, this will only work while you are in this list
box. If you go to other areas of the program, you will most likely want
the arrows reading line as they do by default.
Good luck.

Raul,
Thanks for the suggestion, but it didn't work. I even went so far as to
up it to 99 and WE is still repeating the item it was previously on.
If moving down it is speeking the one I just left before speeking the
one the Highlight is on and if moving up WE is saying the one it had
been on before saying what the highlight bar is on now.
Got another idea?
Thanks for the help
Shannon

Hi. You can try setting your cursor delay to something higher than 1
which is the default. perhaps 5 or 10 and see if that makes a
difference. This is found under the general menu of WE.

Hello,
I hope I can explain this correctly. Here goes.
I have a field in our accounting package where you are to enter the
vendor number. If you don't know it you can press F2 and a look up box
appears.
The curser is in a box at the bottom of the screen where you can start
typing the number of the vender and as you do the choices that start
with that are the only ones shown. Or if you tab once you are in a box
where you can start typing the name or a part of the name of the vender
and the matching items are shown. In both cases You can use the arrow
keys to arrow up and down through the list. Here is the problem;
WE is repeating the item it was on last before announcing the current
line that is highlighted for selection.
I tried to use the vertulizer window and route the mouse to that item
and again it is either one above the one I wanted or below the one I
wanted.
I tried to use the Navigator script too. (excuse me if I named that
wrong.)
I can get WE to travel up and down the list with the insert arrow keys
but again what WE is saying Is not the one it is really on.
I can use the mouse to go up and down the list but turning on and off
the number key pad is a pain because I have to do it often. I need the
numpad allot, after all this is an accounting program. Smile
Does anyone have any suggestions to help me solve this problem?
This is WE 7.11 XP3
Color scheme high contrast black.
All suggestions are welcome!
Thanks
Shannon
