Hi James and all:
I typed my keystrokes below after my note that I need to automate.  My 
problem is that I know how to find the info in terms of Jaws but not in 
terms in  a web language.  So if you or anyone knows what the web language 
is for heading, table, copy and append to clipboard,
F8 key please let me know so I know what to look for to automate using this 
utility.  I just began reading the documentation.  I was a mainframe 
computer programmer but don't know any PC languages.  Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Ann
