Am re-sending this, as I didn't see it on the list before. Apologies in
advance if needed. The following is what I saved before on this topic. Hope
it works.
To make multiple selections in a multi select combo box, put the cursor on the
combo box, then go into forms mode with the enter key and then do a shift
key with F8 to go into extended select mode.
Now as you up and down arrow, use the space bar to select or unselect an item.
When you are finished, use shift key plus F8 again to get out of extended
select mode. You can now tab to the go button or next form field.

Hi,
I pressed shift+F8 when I was on the list in IE 6. It did not react. I
pressed enter to go into forms mode and could arrow through list. Can press
space to select one, but I need to select a few choices that are not
contiguous. How can I select all I want?
After I select all I want is there a keystroke to tell me what I have
selected to verify it worked?I am using Jaws 7.1.
Thanks,
Bill

Use shift+F8 to open a multi-select combo box; arrow through, and use
spacebar to select items.

Hi,
I am trying to select multiple items that are not contiguous in a list with
IE 6. I am using Jaws 7.1.
I received the following, but it does not seem to work for me. Am I doing
something wrong or are the instructions incorrect?

In the Select Multiple Categories popup window, use the
arrow keys to go to the correct category and hold down the
Control key. While still holding down on the Control key,
use the arrow keys to navigate to the next category.
Release the Control key and press Shift+Spacebar to select
the next category. Hold down the Control key again to move
to a third category.

Thanks for your help.
Bill
