Hi All on the JFW Mailing List:

I posted a message about this a few days ago, but didn't hear anything
so I'm asking again.

In JAWS 6.2, when you were working on a form in Microsoft Access and had
to find something in a combo box such as a lookup field, you could hit
either alt-down arrow or F4, then use the down arrow key to move through
the combo box and JAWS would read the contents of that box.  However,
this does not work in JAWS 7.  Any thoughts other than using the JAWS
cursor for someone to move through these combo boxes?  Is there a JAWS 7
update to fix this?

I'm seeking this answer for a client.  Thanks in advance for any help.
