Hello Chuck and thanks very much for the great tip. Unfortunately my mouse doesn't seem to be responding to your suggestion. I had a person change the gray bar between 30% and more but still the mouse always announces "apple menu is under the mouse" when I check it with VO F5. If the offer still stands about giving you a phone call maybe that would be a good idea to not fill up this board with posts. I'm in LA so let me know what your time schedule is and your number please.
