you're not an idiot. if you use jaws you turn on forms mode first when on a combo box and then press alt+ down arrow if necessary to get started then the first letter of the item of the combo box you wish to select and then tab. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ann Parsons" <akp@xxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Monday, July 02, 2001 9:05 PM Subject: Re: Multi-tasking Hi, all, Then, I guess I'm an idiot. I fully admit it, I'm an idiot. I want to tell you I went to the Zmud site with MSIE, and I tried to make the combo boxes work for me. I tried alt-down arrow, and I tried pressing enter, and nothing worked. Maybe I'm just an idiot. I took a class in Windows, but it didn't seem to help. Ann P. -- Ann K.
