Hi Steve,
Yes. I have found this. And when I did, about the only thing I had to go on was
WindowHierarchyX and WindowHierarchyY, which gives window position relative to
the application window, to help me figure out what window I was in. That can be
brutal to code.

Subject: [jawsscripts] Control ID and Window Handle the same?
Has anyone ever encountered the following?
I have a program that does not assign non-varying control ID's to its
controls and other windows. In fact, what it does do is to assign the
window handle, whatever it is, as the control ID for that window. It
also has assigned the same name for every single control in the
program. This make scripting most impossible from everything I've
learned about how to make decisions based on what control the
application cursor is on, since the information is not something to be
counted on because it always changes. ANyone ever find this?
