[jawsscripts] Scripting alternative for highlight tracking if custom highlight does not work

I'm trying to let JAWS follow the highlighted row in a grid control. First
thing I did was defining a custom highlight, but this didn't give any feedback
when arrowing through the grid.
By using insert+5 I see that the colors of the highlighted row change to the
expected colors as defined in my custom highlight. Also, when alt+tabbing away
from the application and back again, insert+upArrow reads the right row. So, it
seems JAWS sees the colors, but does not respond by searching for a new
highlight when I arrow around.
So, I would like to:
1. Force JAWS to scan for a custom highlight when arrowing through the grid. Or
2. Write a custom script that searches for a highlight and reads it.
Does anyone have some suggestions? Of course I would prefer option 1 because
this might be more stable and reliable and less work. Any example code as a
starting point for options 2 is also highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Bram__________�
