Dear Dan,
I have a gig tonight and am about to leave for the sound check so I'll do this
tomorrow morning. Meanwhile I just want to make sure that the zero we are
talking about is the upper row zero and not the one on the numeric keypad used
as jaws key. I'm nearly sure of this but you never mentioned it.
Cheers,
JPR

Jean-Philippe,
This is good news. It proves that you can use keystrokes to trigger a
plug-in. The next test is a little complicated.
1. Open a score, Bebop would be best because I know this score has no nasty
surprises in it.
2. Go to the preferences and check what keystroke you assigned to the
"Access" plug-in. I think it was
ALT+CONTROL+SHIFT+0 but you need to make absolutely sure that you know this
keystroke for the test to work.
3. Close the preferences dialog and return to the score.
4. Press CONTROL+GRAVEACCENT until JAWS says "plug-in disabled".
5. Now use the navigation keys to move to a note in the score. I suggest
moving down to the piano A staff and finding a chord.
6. Press INSERT+3 to pass key through.
7. Press the keystroke that you assigned to the plug-in.
8. Find the folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\(your user name)\Application Data\Sibelius
Software\Sibelius 5\Plug-ins\Access
9. Open the file SibeliusToJAWS.ini
10. Locate the line which starts "msg=".
The line should look something like:
Msg=**page** Bar 21 %%2nd ending F5 D5 C5 Ay4 Half note
quarter 1 %%Chord symbol Dmin7
If you read the line carefully you should find the pitches of the notes and
its duration and position. In the message above the relevant text is:
F5 D5 C5 Ay4 Half note quarter 1
Does this information reflect the note or chord you were on when you pressed
the plug-in keystroke?

Dear Dan,
both keystrokes worked perfectly.
I don't know how reassuring this is.

Jean-Philippe,
We need to determine whether Sibelius is assigning shortcuts properly.
Can
you do the following:
1. Open the preferences dialog and go to the menus and shortcuts page.
2. In the menu or category choose "play".
3. In the feature list choose "Play/Stop or snap line/lyric to next note".
4. Give this a keystroke of Alt+9
5. Now in the menu category list choose "plug-ins".
6. In the feature list choose "System Objects".
7. Give this a keystroke of Alt+0.
8. OK the preferences dialog.
9. In the score try both these keystrokes.
Alt+9 should start and stop the playback.
Alt+0 should open a dialog called System Objects.
Let me know what happens,
Dan Rugman
