Hi, My research just told me that annoyingly, JAWS 15 says the word edit every single time I type a character in Notetab Light. I fired up Window-eyes and began to do things like reclassing windows, and I'm having moderate success getting things to talk better. Now if I can get with someone who knows Window-eyes well, I can ask some basic scripting questions to short cut a few things going on. There may be some potential with this combination.
