Hi Paul,
You got it exactly. I have been trying your method and it works so far,
Cheers Jeff

I've come to this thread a bit late and I don't know where your list box
is. Sometimes, there are such lists on Web pages which do exactly what
you describe. In those circumstances, you should try opening the list
with alt down arrow and then use the Jaws cursor to go down the list
since this will not have the effect of selecting the item which Jaws is
reading. You then use the simulated mouse click to make your selection.
Note that in a long list, you will need to find the scroll down control
and click this with the Jaws cursor in order to display subsequent items.

hi. yes but my point is, if you press alt down arrow before you arrow
around, it should not just select the first option and go to it. it
should allow you to keep arrowing around until you get the one you
want and then you can press enter on it to activate it.

Hi
my problem is that once I use the arrow buttons the first choice in
the box is chosen and it goes to it? it is odd!

hi. when you press enter on the combox box to go in to it, press alt
down arrow and that'll open up the list and allow you to arrow
through and press enter on your desired option.
all the best,
Mo.

Hi,
When on line I open a combo-box but have no time to arrow down
before it closes and selects itself!!
How do you choose the correct option with jaws 14 and windows 7?
