Subject: [jawsscripts] Jaws cursor question

Hi all,
Keep in mind I'm very new to scripting so be gentle.  hahaha

I have a program at work that uses 2 screens.  The phone is dialed in one 
window, and the customer info is in the other side of the window.

You can control tab between windows with no problems.  However, in order for 
the phone to work in the customer screen, you have to click on  an area of the 
screen Jaws doesn't always see.

I worked with a sighted person yesterday and the area I have to click on stays 
in a consistent position.

Here is my question.  Is there a way to write a script that sends the Jaws 
cursor to a know position?

Using the alt delete keys, Jaws gives me the same coordinates each time we 
tried it.  I am not able using the normal key strokes to make the Jaws cursor 
go to the same place.  I supposed I could write a line that required the Jaws 
cursor to have a long series of next character commands but I'd like to know if 
I could to go straight to a pixel position.

I need to do a left mouse click in order to make the phone line active after 
the phone dials the number.

Thanks for any help.
