John, Also play with highlighting. I think that Window-Eyes still tracked a focus rectangle, but maybe something there isn't working right under Windows 7. I do remember this kind of problem comming and going away over time. Also, and of course I'm grasping at straws here, try track mouse with focus in case that helps. If you are already doing that, try turning it off.
That's a real pain. I can remember that when I had this kind of problem, I accidentally deleted the wrong messages from time to time. We also have more reclassing options now than I had when I was using Notes 4.5, and I suppose it is worth experimenting with that. From what you are saying, it sounds as though something about Window-Eyes and Windows 7 is causing these lists to be handled differently, but I do remember this being a problem from time to time before Windows 7.

I do remember an issue where if a line was only partly visible that Window-Eyes could read it even though it was not completely visible and that confused Window-Eyes in terms of establishing which line was highlighted. >Having the window resized so that the top and bottom of the window occurred >between lines seemed to help. However, if you are really using Lotus Notes 4, you might have to upgrade to get the problem resolved. >Best regards, >Steve Jacobson >On Mon, 9 Jan 2012 15:04:17 +0000, [email protected] wrote: >>Hello list, >>Here at work we use a very old version of Lotus Notes as a document >>repository. >>Until recently there was no problem with this.
