The best way I find to use the system tray is : Press JAWS Key+F11. Arrow down through the list to the item you want to open. Press ALT+D to open.

Date: Mon, 20 Aug 2007 23:02:30 -0400 Hey everyone, You can tell I have a new computer because the questions keep coming! When I try and use the numpad as the mouse I run into a problem. Instead of clicking where I navigate to using the numpad, the left mouse button on the numpad clicks where the cursor from the actual mouse is on the screen. This makes it impossible to access icons from my system tray and often results in me clicking on the desktop or an open window instead. Any ideas as to how this can be fixed? Thanks in advance! -Marc ------------------------------ From: "G.W. Cox" <gwcox2@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: Windows XP, Jaws 8.0 and the mouse!

The easiest way to deal with the system tray is hold down the Jaws key and hit F 11. Then you can arrow through and enter on the items. ----- Original Message ----- From: Marc Rocheleau To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, August 20, 2007 9:02 PM Subject: Windows XP, Jaws 8.0 and the mouse!
