Hi David,
Thank you for the help. The F1 key works like a charm now.
In case you wonder what on earth I am doing over here, I am creating
short cut keys for all the items on the main screen for Norton internet
security. I noticed that even though F1 does bring up help it was not listed
in the JAWS key list. So, I thought I had better create a key for it.
I very much appreciate your help!
God bless,
Mark
