Thanks, the trouble I've been having has to do with a particular toolbar
menu window.
The toolbar and dropdown menus are all MSAA components, which isn't a
problem, since you can press escape or alt to close the menus.
The problem is that all of these menus appear to be within a custom parent
window that remains open even after the MSAA toolbar is closed, thus making
it impossible to get JAWS to focus on anything else on the main window, even
when using SetFocus or RoutePCToJAWS to get away from that one annoying
window. For example, you can press alt to close the toolbar, and when
checking out the MSAA structure using BX, you can see that all of the menus
are collapsed. Yet, when you press insert+t to read the current window
title, you hear Toolbar, since this one window is still open and has no
apparent means to close it.
I'm not at all certain that SendMessage will do the trick, but I'm not sure
what else to try. I'll give it a go later this evening though.
Thanks for the parameter values,
Bryan
