Hello Everybody. I have a collection of scripts which attempt to make Word 2010 usable. However, they are not consistently reliable, and it seems extraordinarily hard to make what I think are very basic script routines work readily, Below is a stripped down script from one which tries to play with the Word count window. This has worked for ages. Now we have the situation where on 2 laptops, same file, same script, it always works on one, and never works on the other. That shrieks timing, but that doesn't seem to be it. So I'd appreciate any help on what on earth is wrong with such a simple script. Word is bad enough without Jaws fighting me ! Thanks ------- Script yyy () var handle hwnd, int ret, string txt TypeKey("ALT+R") Pause() TypeKey("ALT+W") ;always works, always gets right window Pause() Delay(3) ;changing to 50 does not help let hwnd = GetCurrentWindow() if hwnd then let ret = FindString(hwnd,"Pages", S_TOP, S_RESTRICTED) ;bottom &unrestricted don't help if !ret then Say("Can't find pages", OT_BUFFER) else Say("Found!", OT_BUFFER) endif let txt = GetListOfObjects(hwnd, ";") ;prove right window and can see it all CopyToClipboard(txt) endif EndScript __________� View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/jawsscripts
