Hi Tom, Thanks, I see, and what a post for the old talk list. Smile
Thanks again, Rod -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tom Kingston via Talk Sent: Thursday, June 04, 2015 1:32 PM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Re: Reclass insert-r and the styles checkbox I just remembered there is a way to reclass standard controls. I thought you might be interested in this, Rod, because it can be done via scripting. Here's a case wherein the editor window is a static window. Sub OnChildFocus(oFocused) ' Validate the window here. If oFocused.OriginalType = wtStatic And Cursor.Visible Then ' Make sure it hasn't already been reclassed. If oFocused.Type = wtStatic Then oFocused.Type = wtEdit End If End Sub Regards, Tom On 6/4/2015 12:32 PM, Tom Kingston via Talk wrote: > Lou, > > Rod is correct. Sorry I didn't mention that.
