Actually, the location of the grave-accent depends on the brand of your
computer, especially in the case of laptops. On my new Toschiba laptop, for
example, the grave-accent key is underneath the number row, whereas to the
left of the 1 on the number row is escape.

Dan,
I have a suggestion with the way you are writing documentation etc.
You wrote:
You should be in a combo box called "Keystroke".
The keystroke listed hear should be Control+`
Cant you make it say:
You should be in a combo box called "Keystroke".
The keystroke listed hear should be Control+ grave accent. The grave accent
key is just to the left of the 1 on the number row.
Just it bit more intuitive for users, especially beginners.
Also when you write dash and equals, write the words rather than the
symbols.
Just something things that I think will make it clearer to users.
Hope this helps.
Scott

Hi Vytautas,
This is a known issue. The installation process is supposed to assign a
keystroke to the access plug-in, but it clearly isn't working. We'll be
putting some known issues and fixes up on the site and I pasted the one for
this problem below.
---
The navigation keystrokes do not work and I keep hearing the same message.
The problem is that the Access plug-in has not been assigned a keystroke.
To fix this problem, do the following:
Press Control+Comma to open the preferences dialog.
Pres ShiftTab once.
You should be in a list box called "showing page"
Select the item "Menus and Shortcuts".
Press Tab once.
You should be in a combo box and the selected item should be "Access (user
copy).
If it isn't, select that item.
Press Tab again.
You should be in a list box called "menu or category".
Select the item "plug-ins"
Press Tab again.
You should be in a list box called "Feature".
Press Control+Home to make sure that the first item is selected.
DownArrow to the item "Access"
Press Tab once more.
You should be in a combo box called "Keystroke".
The keystroke listed hear should be Control+`
If this is not the case then do the following:
Tab to the "Add" button and press space.
Another dialog opens called "add keystroke".
Press Insert+NumberRow3
Press Control+`
Tab to the OK button and press space.
A message may pop up saying that the keystroke is being used by another
plug-in.
If it does, press the Yes button.
The add keystroke dialog closes and you'll be returned to the preferences
dialog.
Tab to the OK button and press it.
Now try navigating in the score.
---
Hope this helps,
Dan

Hello all,
I'm trying to work onone of my scores, but can't make JAWS announce notes
and positions correctly. Every note is called C-sharp, and every bar is bar
18; for duration, it announces a weird thing that sounds like "her" or
"hur". Is there something I'm missing?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, also considering I'm starting
University tomorrow.
Cheers
Vytautas Bucionis
