Well, what you'd do is build a frame, & say that when it triggers, u want it to run a script/function. The script/function would look similar to: void Function ReadText () if (MoveTo(x, y)) then ; x & y are screen coordinates sayWord() PriorLine() SayWord() else say("move unsuccessful", ot_no_disable) endif return EndFunction I can't guarantee the function will perform as u desire. It is syntactically correct & does what u specify. I do advise u check the help on MoveTo() for its caveats.
