Hi Deborah,

From what I've heard, that doesn't work consistently. JAWS often doesn't find the line with the box, for some reason. Go figure.

Hi Lissi,

having never had this happen, I am assuming this box is not in the document window, but in the area of the tool bars and menu bar.

if that's the case, turn on the JAWS cursor by pressing the minus key (top right key on the numeric key pad). Press the page up key and then move down one line at a time until you get to the the line with box.

I don't know how comfortable you are with JAWS, so please forgive me if this is remedial stuff.

Anyway, hold down the control key while using the right or left arrow keys until you have the JAWS cursor/mouse pointer where you need it and do a left click. Voila!

Deborah
