Hello,
A couple suggestions...
1. Use the Ins-Alt-W command to virtualize the window and see if you can hear
anything with the usual cursors. If not, this might be an entirely graphical
presentation.
2. While you're still in the virtual mode, Press Ctrl-A and Then press Ctrl-C
to copy the whole screen. Then press Esc. Then launch Word or Notepad. Ctrl-V
to paste and see what you got. If you only have the window title and other
surrounding text and nothing in-between, then it may be a graphical
representation.
If it's graphical, then you may have to resort to using something like
Openbook's Freedom Import Printer to do OCR on any screen that you're
interested in, and given the large amount of text in that book you're
researching, could be a Sisyphean task.

Hi all. I recently received software from Zondervan, "the Zondervan Bible
Study Library Family Edition 5.0." When I went to install this, the setup
screen said nothing. So I had someone sighted click on install and the rest of
the installation screens read fine with jaws. When the program was installed,
the menu options under the menu bar would read but the main window is split in
to 2 windows with the left side containing a bible and the right side
containing other pertinent information. I only know how this was set up because
someone told me. "When I arrowed down, none of the text would read, however,
the screen would visually advance. When I tabbed, this would not take me
between any of the windows or change anything. I was wondered if anyone know
anything about this software or if anyone might be able to write me a jaws
script to enable this program to be accessible. Thank you for any suggestions.
Tiffany
