Jean-Philippe, Before you go to such drastic lengths can you try assigning the access plug-in a simpler keystroke. Try Alt+8. Then move to a note and press that keystroke. After that, open the SibeliusToJAWS ini file again.

All I get is a bunch of C sharps. I think I will try and restore my system to the point before I installed Sibelius and sibelius access and try and reinstall everything from scratch. Maybe I did something stupid I'm not aware of. Below is what the Sibelius to jaws .INI looks like.

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?

I don't know how reassuring this is.

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.
