Hi. Ctrl-tab is a standard Windows hotkey. With a Web browser, it jumps from one tab to another, assuming that there are multiple tabs which are opened. In a multi-page dialog, such as the Internet Explorer options dialog, ctrl-tab moves from one page of options to another page of options, such as moving from the general tab or page to the privacy tab. I'm not certain why this wouldn't work in Window-Eyes unless it's been assigned to do something different in the Window-Eyes hotkeys list??

Hi: I just spent some time in the WE doc but couldn't find mention of this
key combo in a few diferent headings.

This is the standard Windows hot key combo for reading through a standard
TabList.

It works in another screen reader but I havent gotten it to work in WE so
far.

I was guessing the Control-tab key may be a WE hot key but couldn't find it,
at least not so far, in the WE docs after going through the list of we hot
keys, looking under several likely topic Titles and trying a search on
"control-tab".

Do you know if this is a WE hot key since it is, or at least was,  a
standard Windows hot Key but doesn't seem to work in WE?

At least it was listed in the quick search on google for windows hot keys I
just performed - let me know if this is not the case if you know.

What category would it be listed under if I want to turn it off in WE if not
important?

I designed a rather complex form using the Tab Control in Visual Studio and
really don't want to slog through the labels in production mode using the
mouse to open the various tabs nor have to use another reader on this page
nor completely ReDesign and ReProgram what is a nice layout.

If I can get the Windows Hot key to work, control-tab, I should be able to
tab through the tab list properly me thinks.
