I forgot to include the direct download URLs for HomerKit. For the executable installer, http://EmpowermentZone.com/kitsetup.exe For a manual or selective install, http://EmpowermentZone.com/kitsetup.zip By the way, I didn't find HomerKit listed in the JAWS Scripting Repository mentioned at the bottom of these list messages. I hope it can be added by whoever is doing that work. Also, please add a reference to the scripts for Visual Studio 2005 or 2008, http://EmpowermentZone.com/msenv2005.exe or http://EmpowermentZone.com/msenv2005.zip I learned the GetObject technique for what I call the Homer Script Component from this article: "Doctor Script's Script Shop: Windows Script Components Have a COM-ing Effect" http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/resources/scriptshop/default.mspx Jamal On Wed, 24 Sep 2008, Jamal Mazrui wrote: > Date: Wed, 24 Sep 2008 17:31:41 -0400 (EDT) > From: Jamal Mazrui <empower@xxxxxxxxx> > Reply-To: jawsscripts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > To: jawsscripts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [jawsscripts] Possible breakthrough with dynamic execution of > VBScript code > > HomerKit now includes a technique whereby a JAWS script can execute code > in the VBScript language (Visual Basic Scripting Edition).
