Thanks for your response to my question. the best thing I've been able to
come up with is to use f6 to go back to the main document window, but I
haven't applied it in actual practice, so I'll just have to wait and see
what happens.
I think maybe I'll ask Debbie Scales over at
jfwlite@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
and see what she has to say about it.
Why is their so much discrepency between programs on Windows XP? Actually
the problems aren't with Microsoft Programs, well except office of course,
but there are numerous occasions when I install a software or hardware, and
I have to use the Jaws cursor through the complete installation because the
windows don't read with the PC cursor.
There's not many gripes that I have with XP, but I am concerned whenever I
need to use the Jaws cursor to read text in the main window of an
application.
