The first thing to do is get the mouse tools. If you read the web site you will learn how to use the tools. You will need a sighted person to put the mouse on the dropbox icon. Get the x y coordinates. Open the apple script editor. Copy the script from the e-mail and paste it into the apple script editor. Insert the coordinates. Save the script as a application. Thats it.
