[jawsscripts] Re: how to use MSAA

ok, first, I like others undoubtedly, have been waiting for "someone else 
who knows more about it" to reply, which can turn into a seemingly "there 
ignoring me" situation, so I apologize for that, your not being ignored, 
just us scratching our heads and waiting to see if someone knows more than 
"we" do.

the only assistance I can offer, myself, is that I have a set of accessible 
MSAA documents available on my "grab bag" site (see URL under my name) for 
easy access, in word format. if you want to try them, but need or would 
prefer another format, just let me know and I'll translate them for you; 
that and there may be some scripting tools that your unaware of on my 
currently jaws, soon to be jaws window eyes and Hal scripting page.

I can only hope that this will be of assistance to you,
