as far as windows mail is concerned the focus problem is there even with no screen reader running and at this point control y will not bring up any list of folders until you get focus in the program. then this will work. but not until. w e does put focus to the in box if you have windows mail loaded without speech then load w e then the focus will go to the in box. the only way to get focus while w e is running is to alt tab in and out of windows mail or left mouse click on the inbox window or the list of mail boxes. this is the only way. maybe a script would work if it could automatically direct w e focus to the in box when it is loaded? ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Trenton Matthews ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 23, 2008 9:13 AM Subject: Re: focus issue with Windows Mail
