Mike,
Hmmm. Are you using JAWS 9? This is a change in JAWS 9 and is not in
earlier versions of JAWS.
I can find it in JAWS 9 by opening the script manager using Ins + zero,
opening shared file "default.jcf" then doing a Ctrl+F and searching on
"topandbottom".
Alice

Can't find that in Default.jcf.
I did find a Top_And_Bottom_Edge_alert=126 in the hjconst.jsh.

If you are using BottomEdgeEvent in JAWS 9, beware, it is turned
off by default. To turn it on add the following lines to your script jcf
file or change the value in the default.jcf.
; determines whether the TopEdgeEvent and BottomEdgeEvent will
fire, 1=true, 0=false
TopAndBottomEdgeAlert=1

I have a very simple script to read the word directly
under the PC cursor and then move to that word. This is for Rumba. I m
using it to read columns of text on the mainframe. It works fine except
when I get to the bottom of the page, then it just says blank. What I'd
like to do is know how to recognize the bottom edge and do or say
something other than 'blank'.
The script is as I said very simple.
Script SayWordOnNextLine ()
SaveCursor ()
InvisibleCursor ()
RouteInvisibleToPc ()
NextLine ()
SayWord ()
RoutePcToInvisible ()
EndScript
I found a BottomEdgeEvent function and a
ProcessBoundaryStrike function but I can't tell a lot about how they are
used. The only reference material I have is what comes with Jaws.
I have reclassed the window to a multi Line edit window.
I don't know if that is the correct thing to do or not.
