This has already been treated, and should be successfully solved with
the shift-f8 entry into Extended Select List Mode.  However, for future
reference, I thought I'd include the following.

To make multiple selections in a multi select combo box, get the cursor
on
the combo box, then go into forms mode with the enter key and then do a
shift key with F8 to go into extended select mode.
Now as you up and down arrow, use the space bar to select or unselect an
item.  When you are finished, use shift key plus F8 again to get out of
extended select mode.  You can now tab to the go button or next form
field

Subject: combo box question ASAP


I am in the middle of submitting an online resume, and there are two
combo
boxes for selecting type of employment and category. I can select
multiple
items, by using control click. I can't seem to get JAWS to do this, and
if I
do, I'm not sure what is selected. Has anyone had experience using these
checkboxes, and how do I select multiple items and read them to be
certain
they are selected?
