What am I doing wrong? I used the IsJAWSCursor and it's working but when I
change to the JAWS Cursor within Counter Point the PC cursor is still active
but it reads the information under the JAWS cursor but only the PC cursor
moves.
I also tried the read only labeled graphics but I don't think they are
actually graphics as it says symbol for them.
Thanks
Jerry
