That's it, exactly. Sometimes the combo box has been created in such a way that you need to press alt+down arrow to open the list of items. This isn't always the case though.

You can then navigate the list. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carla Jo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, August 19, 2006 1:33 PM Subject: [jaws-users] navigating a combo box I thought to navigate in a combo box was using the arrow key plus the control key. When I go to some combo boxes, it just clicks on the first choice instead of letting me navigate up and down. Do I have the keystrokes wrong? thanks, cj Visit the JAWS Users list home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com For a complete list of email commands pertaining to the JAWS Users List send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit the new archives page at the following address http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Yahoo!
