Hi Vaughan,
Yes, I would do the upgrade to the current version of WE. What about
routing the mouse to the Change Password button/control using
Insert-Numpad-plus? You could ask your colleagues if the Change
Password button/control has a highlighted letter, in which case you
could use Alt and the highlighted letter to activate the
button/control. Also, you could use Insert-Numpad-4 and Insert-Numpad-6
to move to the various clips of the dialog to attempt to find the Change
Password button/control. This is because mouse up and/or down doesn't
do much if the focused window is small or even restricted to the
button/control itself. Use the mouse boundary rotor hot key
Control-Shift-B to change the mouse scope, and then try routing, and
moving by clips, etc. to try to get to the button/control.
hth,
Rod
