I found the 'bx' tool to be much more understandable when researching MSAA. I still have a long way to go, but I have gotten Communicator to do quite a bit. In terms of checking for MSAA, the MSN scripts have a if statement that appears to check this. I can search the code if you need me too.

Is this something a developer does consciously, or is it generated automatically by the development environment? Where can I find information about MSAA from an accessibility tool (JAWS) viewpoint rather than the application perspective? I know the Home Row Utilities can reveal some MSAA info, but I have not taken the time to figure it out yet. Besides, I do not know any of the structure or terminology.
