Hello.

Although this may not solve your problems completely, simply plug in a 0, followed immediately by a comma for S_Top, the same for unrestricted. Use the number 1 instead of 0 if you wish to search from bottom of screen up and the number 1 for restricted. Saves time and space.

Good luck.

Jerry

Subject: why doesn't this script line work



I am running jaws 6.2
In a script I am writing, I want to find a string of text when I push a key
When I use control-i to pull up the findstring funtion I am told it needs
four parameters: a window handle, a text string, the search direcction and
whether it is restricted or not.
the line I have looks like this
FindString (GetAppMainWindow (GetFocus ()), "left:" ,s_top ,s_unrestricted)
the word "left" is in quotes because that is what I want to find.
When I try to save the script,I am told s_TOP is an unknown variable even
though it is listed as a constant both in help, and in the guided parameter
entry screens.
Please help. This three line script shouldn't have taken me over two hours
to debug.
