a couple of places there were radio buttons that seemed redundant with
the combo boxes but, as they did not speak, this is a guess on my part.
What I couldn’t say for sure is whether the quirks were due to W E or to
the survey’s construction.

have to use the mouse to read the questions related to the radio buttons
and some check boxes with one exception. I could not simply route the
mouse to the control. I had to read up from the bottom of the screen to
find the questions. We would not find it's way down from the top with
the mouse.
