Hi, I have created a JAWS script in default.jss which creates a COM object and executes a method of that object. If I use the hotkey that executes that script from another application than Notepad, the script works fine, but from Notepad it doesn't execute the method of that COM object. Do you have any idea why is Notepad so special? Here below is that script. If it is executed from Notepad, only the string "OK" is spoken, but if it is executed from another application, it also speaks the result of the method of that COM object. Script Testing () Var Object obj, String trans Let obj = CreateObject("Maestro.Translate") Let trans = obj.Translate("work", "en", "ro", 1, 0) SayString(trans) SayString("ok") EndScript Thanks. --Octavian __________� View the list's information and change your settings at http://www.freelists.org/list/jawsscripts
