Hi Rick
Thank you. Misunderstanding here. I said for example purposes (imagine) that 
the tabs like: basic, recording, schedule, output were not read and hidden 
under normal screen reader conditions how do you use Window-Eyes 6.1 to 
locate/navigate to find the hidden tabs within a dialog box? I know the ctrl - 
tab jumps one to each individual tab/page when pressed.

See I have this program where the tabs are not read when using Window-Eyes. 
ctrl - tab does jump me to each tab's property sheet and controls.

But I do not hear the actual tab I am in. Does Window-Eyes read title bar 
command tell the user the tab he is in with ctrl - shift - t? JAWS tells me the 
dialog box name and tab I am in when pressing title command. 

What do you know about hearing 'custom' on the dialog screen when using 
Window-Eyes and the insert - r key?

Thank you for the title bar command.

Petro
