Hi all,
the short script below allows keystrokes to go through to the rest of the
script when the key describer is active. What have I got wrong here?. When the
Key describer is active I just want a description of what the G and H keys will
do no more. What is happening now is I am getting the description and the
script is then going on to perform the action. I am using window-eyes 7.3 beta
and windows XP pro.
Warm regards.

Dim MyKeyH, MyKeyG, MyKeydescriptionH, MyKeydescriptionG, eventShutdown
MyKeydescriptionH = "when h is pressed, win-eyes will say hello"
MyKeydescriptionG = "when g is pressed window-eyes will say goodbye"
Set MyKeyH = Keyboard.RegisterHotkey("h", "HandleKey", Nothing, 1)
Set MyKeyG = Keyboard.RegisterHotkey("g", "HandleKey", Nothing, 2)

Function HandleKey(parm)
If Keyboard.KeyDescriberActive Then MyHotKeys(parm)
Select Case parm
Case 1
speak "hello"

MyKeyH.UnRegister : MyKeyG.UnRegister
Set MyKeyH = Nothing : Set MyKeyG = Nothing
