Paul Escobar Sent: 22 March 2015 10:26 To: jawsscripts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jawsscripts] Re: Calling an Excel macro with Jaws script? Yes I did. I also used the "TypeCurrentScriptKey()" command along with using the VBA command to not update the screen within the macro to not hear the cursor jump all over the place during execution. Even so, JAWS keeps speaking the cursor movements. This is why I would like to use "SpeechOff()" within the Jaws script, call the Excel macro, then return to the Jaws script to turn speech back on.
