Hello andy, I don't know if it helps or not, but I am using Thunderbird
without scripts, and BTW, in the homerow mode, JAWS MSAA keys like f9 and
f10keys returns the proper window types mostly, and in the particularly I
wasin the message list, I selected a message, and It said "Listbox IItem,
andit also tells if it is selected or not.
Thank you, Jitendra.

whathappens. When I tab to it the first item is highlighted. When I press
down arrow, the pc cursor moves to the next item and then gets stuck because
it appears the only way to select an item is to left mouse button on it. I
don't think any of the listview functions will work since it is impossible
toget a handel to the listview window (every window in the entire program is
called Mozilla_WindowClass). This is Thunderbird and lightning I am dealing
with. Martin Slack wrote: Ok Andy, I understand you to say that the
highlightis moving down a number of times for each single press of the down
arrow key. Have you investigated the list view functions that begin with l
v,such as lvMoveBy LineUnit or lvSelectItem? Martin ----- Original Message

When I take out TypeKey("down arrow") and reassign the script hotkey to
control +d and then run it, this is what happens: 1. Go to the problematic
listview. 2. Press home to make sure I am at the top of the list. 3. Press
down arrow once followed by control+d to activate the script. The result is
that the highlight bar moves down x number of down arrow presses. What I am
trying to do with the script is to be able to down arrow and expect that the
highlight bar would move with the down arrow. If this can be done with Jaws
then it would be good since there is no other hope for the listview. Is
therea way to do this? It looks like I'm close since I can do it like this
sofar. Martin Slack wrote: Hi Andy, Firstly I would say that the line:
TypeKey("down arrow") in your script isn't actually doing anything. I
understand that you have to use the exact form of words that FS has
prescribed as a key name, and in this case, it doesn't include a space, and
has both sub-words capitalised. Like so: TypeKey("DownArrow") However, the
fact that the script is working must mean that it is the down arrow key
activating the script that is causing the pc cursor "highlight" to move
down.What happens if you press the down arrow key the appropriate number of
times, then use control+shift+some other key to call your script (without
thefinal TypeKey line) ? Martin ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andy

alistview. I have the following script that works when using control windows
downarrow, but I have to press control windows down arrow each time I want
togo down in the list. Is there a way to make it do this but be able to hold
down the control windows combo and then just hit the down arrow to move in
