Thank you Martin,
The script works wonderfully well.
I needed to increase the delay a little for my system, but it works like a
charm, and the key codes are the same on my system.
It will take me a while to get my head around the more direct methods at
that site, but now I have the script going well, I may leave that to another
day...
Thanks again.
Regards,
Paul

Hi Paul,
I spent some time looking here:
http://www.help-info.de/en/Help_Info_HTMLHelp/hh_command.htm
to see if there was a command line switch to do what you want. It turns out
that you can open a chm file at a desired topic, (they all have a sort of
internal address in the chm file), but not at a book. The books seem to be
generated on the fly when the contents tree view is drawn.
However there is a way to do what you outlined from a JAWS script:
script openFSDN ()
Run ("C:\\FreedomScientificDocs\\FSDN\\fsdn.chm")
Delay (10, true) ; give the window time to open
TypeKey ("77", 0) ; right arrow opens Scripting book
TypeKey ("80", 0) ; down arrow highlights General Concepts book
TypeKey ("80", 0) ; down arrow highlights Reference Guide book
TypeKey ("77", 0) ; right arrow opens Reference Guide book
TypeKey ("80", 0) ; down arrow highlights JAWS book
TypeKey ("77", 0) ; right arrow opens JAWS book
EndScript
I should check that the antipodean scan codes are the same as for a u k
keyboard, and also that your FSDN file is at the same address as mine.
